    Gold Fanams from Indian States are pretty darn small....

    I have a 1/4 fanam that's barely visable

    That's a pretty broad question when your talking "world gold" . Are you talking diameter or actual gold weight?
    Like Bailathacl said the India Fanam is small with a diameter of about - 7mm.
    There are several countries with coins of this size. (1/16 ducat)
    The German state of Nurnberg has a 1/32 ducat that is approx. 5mm -- .0035oz AGW which is the smallest i could find

    I really don't think its that broad at all. What's the smallest?..... Weight would be the obvious choice because you can have a small diameter and a big thickness... I think most knew what I meant. Either way, thanks for the input on the Ducats... I'll have to check those out also.

    I've seen one of these, they are tiny. I actually had it slabbed by ICG.

    Todd,

    All is good ....

    This site has a very extensive list of small world gold coins as reference (unfortunately not for sale)
    Small gold coins

    Regarding purchasing one ... I'd contact these guys in Europe Kuenker.
    I have purchased a few coins from them with great success. They are very helpful to us on this side of the pond.
