Yes, my Liege?

Stopped by the local coin shop and perused some new inventory. Nothing caught my eye, except for a number of 18th-century pieces from Liege. Because they were as cheap as they were, I decided to pick up a bunch. Nothing high-grade, but they were all $3-6 each so I figured "What the heck!" (with the exception of the 1727 piece; even though it's in the poorest condition of the bunch, Krause prices it only as "Rare" with dashes, so the dealer wanted a pretty penny for it... had to have it though).

    You need one from 1725 to fill that 1723-24-26-27 run, at the very least. image

    For some reason I'm really turned on by old Liege copper.
