My main complaint is that I sure wish they'd shown both sides of each of these coins. Colligo ergo sum Report this Post to the Staff
tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7936 Posts	Posted 02/07/2021 2:39 pm I agree it's a nice article. I had wondered about the origin of both the Batzen and the Dicken. I posted something a couple of years ago on the batzen, but can't find it (maybe on one of the How Far Back threads?) Edit: On p.285 of this thread: http://goccf.com/t/277302&whichpage...Terms=batzen One tiny nit to pick: it is St. Peter on the Albus, not St. Paul. Medieval collectors know that Peter shows up on the coins of many episcopal and archepiscopal cities in the Rhineland. The saint with the keys is always Peter. Finally, I know we have a CCF member with a collection based on these groundbreaking types through the ages (i.e., the earliest gros, the earliest florin, teston, etc) Edited by tdziemia 02/07/2021 3:02 pm Report this Post to the Staff
