I like it!
As much as I love history, I am usually not interested in ancients. But that tiny stater looks great.
Edited to add: These are electrum, which is cool. But I guess it's the presentation in the slab that stands out to me. Reading about this, I learned a few new things. Thanks!

Tiniest coin I've seen. And we thought Roosevelt dimes were small...even more diminutive than the Charbneau Golden Gate Exposition dollars:

Melt value of OP's coin at 0.15g is around $6.71

Wow... that is tiny.... Without the slab, a sneeze while handling it could make it permanently disappear....I have gold nuggets bigger than that....Cheers, RickO
You should reholder it and ask NGC to put it in one of those giant slabs.

Good grief that's small! I would be afraid it would bend by putting it in the holder. Is this the same one that's on eBay for $995?

That's hysterical and interesting at the same time!
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
I'm looking for a silver center out of a 1795 dollar or a 1792 Silver Center cent.
Well the hole in plastic looked easy to drill for NGC...1/2 drill bit...
It is the same coin, but the photos are not from eBay. Here are the close ups from eBay to compare:
Cool thread! Cool coin! That close-up reminds you of another unusual coin.
