This is a rare 1842 Braubunden 4-Franken Shooting Festival in Chur, I picked up on ebay. These are rare and part of the first Shooting Talers in Switzerland with very low mintage.

In my opinion, a real beauty.

Richter 836a
AU-50 NGC
Mintage 6000

That is a real tough piece Zohar. I was also tracking that one, and forgot to check the auction before it ended. Nice pickup indeed.

Thanks Brent. My wife and I just had a baby girl, our first. We are joyous - this is the greatest experience of our life.

However, coins will remain a hobby. I bid on this prior to heading into labor and it came in today. I am in between baby feedings and thought I would post!

Cheers,

Zohar

I think Stone is quite familiar with photoshop. Rest assured it is AU-50, and a nice one at that.
