D.G.C

Laying out coins on the bed, locking myself in my office room on weekends to take photos. My wife found it amusing that there are indeed others of the same kind  

I also know the problem of silly prices in Germany. Just because something is graded doesn't justify ten times the price. but if something is available at a normal price +50€ or so, i'll grab it right away. Knowing the grade directly and saving the effort of sending it in is definitely worth it

 Hi, nice coin. I'm missing 1913...

Earlier I collected british and russian coins, but shifted to german coins especially imperial but also older ducats, gulden and thalers. the older I get the more patriotic  particularly the mints with letters C (Frankfurt, living in suburbs of the city) and H (Darmstadt, not far from here, where I spent my student days at university) 

at Darmstadt my few modest coins have been in the lead for the last few years in the registry  As for the Prussians, I'm curious if it will be enough for first place when the coins are finished with the grading...

hi,

at the moment on german imperial coins --> dovegarden2021 | NGC (ngccoin.com) 

I use coat of arms as banner and generic ngc pics for coins, but I'll do better

By the way, thanks for your journal. I always like to look in 

Your photos are amazing and the banners are really cool! I think I'll get inspired by them
