A few days ago I purchased a rather large collection of mainly Canadian coins. Nothing Special there, just a pile of silver.
BUT some coins were interesting. like this coin posted here. It is probably the smallest coin I have ever seen. If it is a coin????
I have not a single clou what it is.
weight is: 0.60 grams
thickness is: 0 .75 mm
diameter is: 10.4 mm

Can anyone help please??
thank you

    IVB,
    thank you so much for your help.
    You must either be able to read the coin or know the coin.
    I was completely stabbing in the dark.
    the collection I bought contains other Chinese coins which I am clou-less about. might post some later

    You are right, I have the same coin, and I remember it due to its small size. Just like 1 new Uruguayan peso 1989 and Colombia 2½ centavos 1873. These are the smallest modern coins in my collection and they are all less than 12 mm in diameter.
