Zohar444 Pillar of the Community United States 1429 Posts	Posted 05/02/2009 3:25 pm Traded in many circulated US coins and got the beauties below. I am pleased and so is the wife as she sees fewer coins. This is what I call a win-win Austria Ferdinand (1564-1695) 2 Taler. Edge is not mounted but rather clipped during of punching and pressure applied to the blank. Salzburg 1788 Taler NGC XF-45 (have this in AU-58 will use for future trade). 1792 Half Taler - NGC MS-61 - This is my first Half Taler of this type (harder to find) Rare Double Klippe (Heavy) referencing the 1628 Salzburg Consecration of the Salzburg Cathedral Any reference to this special coin would be appreciated. See original coin and thread - https://goccf.com/t/44178&SearchTer...rg,cathedral Austria 1885 Innsbruk Shooting 2 Florin Any reference to this coin is appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff

wcg Valued Member United States 217 Posts	Posted 05/02/2009 10:39 pm Wow! I think you made some real nice purchases - especially the klippe. Have you thought about trying to put together a full set of the issues for the 1628 cathedral? The double talers are simply amazing. I attended the Central States show today and absolutely drooled over a 1 1/2 taler from brunswick, but I couldn't figure out a way to make it happen. Report this Post to the Staff

Zohar444 Pillar of the Community United States 1429 Posts	Posted 05/02/2009 11:34 pm BTW - I just noticed NGC enables verification of slabs along with images. See this one I had sent in a while back - http://www.ngccoin.com/certlookup/C...=2372536-002 Report this Post to the Staff
wcg Valued Member United States 217 Posts	Posted 05/05/2009 10:13 pm Zohar - the only other issues for 1628 are the 1/2 taler, the 2 taler, 3 taler, 4 taler, 5 taler, and 6 taler pieces. Can you imagine the rarity of those multiple taler pieces? Again - congrats on the new pickups. I will be interested to see what you manage to dig up on the 1628 klippe (a restrike I assume?).

Zohar444 Pillar of the Community United States 1429 Posts	Posted 05/05/2009 10:16 pm 1628 is a restrike, dealer called it a 'Double Klippe' - it weighs close to 2 ounces in silver (thicker than a 2 Taler piece) and supposedly had a mintage of 100. I can not find any validation yet I liked the linkage to the 1628 original. Report this Post to the Staff
Archraz Pillar of the Community United States 3499 Posts	Posted 05/06/2009 12:18 am Zohar444- the Double Klippe is a very nice 300 year commem coin. But who was the exact issuer of the coin? Was it actually a product of the Austrian mint? Report this Post to the Staff
