The Page of Coins is so very interesting. In many ways, in both positions of his arms and legs, he mirrors the Basteleur (Magician). Yet he carries not a wand, but a Coin. Or is it a mirror by which to better know himself? or a globe by which to better investigate either the terrestrial or celestial worlds? Or indeed, is it seed - as that other Coin seems to indicate by its seeming burial within the confines of the Earth?

I have just been reading about the Page of Coins, and it was pointed out that some people consider him to be the Magician's apprentice. Are you able to throw any light on this theory? I see the stance is similar, as you said but its the coin that I find difficult to link with the Magician (also Basteleur or Bateleur??)

I might take the opportunity to add a post in the thread on the Valet de Deniers... it will make future reference easier :):):)
