Numismat Pillar of the Community United States 1674 Posts	Posted 01/12/2009 8:11 pm I personally have collected a couple of the shooting thalers and have a Frauenfeld schutzenfest medal. I love this series and yours should be included in Schutzenfester's ongoing list. =) Report this Post to the Staff
SeriousCERES Valued Member United States 365 Posts	Posted 01/13/2009 5:53 pm These are gorgeous. I've been keeping an eye out for Swiss shooting thalers, grabbing one here and there when a good deal seems to present itself. Is there a guide to them that you would recommend, Zohar?

Zohar444 Pillar of the Community United States 1429 Posts	Posted 01/13/2009 5:59 pm I am new to this myself. I just ordered the Richter catalog which is the most updated: Die Schützentaler und Schützenmedaillen der Schweiz (2 Volumes). The other is Jean Martin, Swiss Medal Katalog which is older.

SeriousCERES Valued Member United States 365 Posts	Posted 01/13/2009 8:39 pm That looks like a great resource, the Richter. At 80 to a 100 euro it should be exhaustive. Would be nice if they were to release a paperback edition! (I can always dream...!) -SC Report this Post to the Staff
