Very happy with results. I have my grades for the top row. They were sent Standard. I don't have them in hand yet but will post pics when I get them.

 

1) 1632 Augsburg Thaler - VF20

2) 1562 England sixpence - XF45

3) 1548 Luneburg Thaler - XF40

4) 1742 Hall 1/2 Thaler - AU Details (mount removed)

 

Agree with all grades. I knew about the mount removal on the Hall 1/2 Thaler but it does not distract. Only the Luneburg really surprised me - for the better. I was thinking VF.

Thanks nunfa0! Care to venture any wild guesses on the second row's grade??? Especially based off a very poor photo.... :popcorn:

 

I really know so little about these coins that I can't even guess the grades. What I do know is that I like them!!

I'm gonna throw out some grades, just based on the sides I see, for the second row. How about:

 

Stolberg -- AU 50

Great Britain -- MS 62

Hesse-Cassel -- AU 58

Bavaria -- AU 50 (I'm hazarding a guess there's wear on the reverse)

Frankfurt -- XF 45 (based on the light, I can't tell, so this guess is just for S's & G's).

Great guesses tewcd. Very close in my thinking on most (within a grade or so +/-). The two that would probably change your mind if you saw them in hand are the Hesse-Cassel (weakly stuck Obv but incredible Rev) and the Frankfurt. That's def lower. Prob VF20. It was a generous S&G guess and I thank you for that. I'll be sure to post the Rev of the Hesse-Cassel due to your avatar.
