Modern Age Europe
Modern Age Antiquities
The period between mid-15th and mid-16th century, which is seen by most scholars as the beginning of the modern age, has seen many inventions and turning points in the history of Europe, such as the invention of letterpress book printing, the fall of Constantinople in 1453 or Martin Luther’s Reformation. From the countless collectible areas which exist for this era, we are focusing our selection for you on early prints and special coins, such as the 8 Reales cob coins which are also known as pirate money. It will always be a pleasure to us to individually work with you on your own and personal collection, looking for special pieces you would like to add. Please do not hesitate to contact us any time via email or using our contact form. Correspondence is welcome in English, German, Italian, French, Russian or Japanese.-
