My New Favorite Coin: Austria 1732 15 Kruezer

[JamminJ]

Hello everyone,

 

Kind of slow over here so I thought I'd post a picture of my new favorite coin! I bought it today at the Long Beach coin show, it's an Austrian 1732 15 Kreuzer coin, made at the Prague mint featuring the portrait of Karl VI.

 

I hope the imagges show up OK, and any comments are welcome!

Edited for picture problems.

Picture problems force the reverse into a second post!

Very nice! I don't particularly care for foreign coins, but I can make an exception!

I got to see this coin in person. It is a nice coin. Good luster and well struck. Very nice.

Nice coin JamminJ. I have always liked the portrait of Karl VI on those coins.

That's really cool. I know this might sound extremely ignorant, but, what's the approximate diameter of it?

[JamminJ]

Thanks for all the nice comments, I like it even better on the second day I've owned it!

 

The diameter of the coin is about 1 1/8 inches, or just a bit smaller than a US half dollar.
