The nearest I came to such a small coin was the Austrian Groschen I found wedged between cobblestones in Kufstein, dated 1864.<br /><br />Thank you for your comments while I had no proper internet connection. I will still be out of reach for some time as we are driving to Sydney to my youngest granddaughter's soiree on the 21st of May.<br /><br />Love to hear from you again soon.Arijahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03720793296992474762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1700532706919063658.post-73331856369213384782011-05-08T12:52:19.060+01:002011-05-08T12:52:19.060+01:00Interesting post.Great macros of the coins.
