Well, after 30+ years in this hobby I'm changing my collecting. I'm now going back to my earlier days on how I setup my collection. I've sold my 1900 to 1918 German States collection, and my Austrian collection. I'm staying with just 16th to 19th century 1/2 Talers, 2/3 Talers, Talers and all the larger denomination Talers of the German States. My 17th and 18th century Austrian and 20th century German coins are being sold at the NYC coin show in January. The 1900 to 1918 German collection ranged in grades of MS-62 to MS-66 all slabbed by NGC and PCGS. The Austrian coins ranged in grades of MS-65 to AU-58, all slabbed by NGC and PCGS. So get ready to see some pics of some rare 16th to 18th century German Sates coins in 2010.

Change can be a very good and exciting time and I am looking forward to seeing them
