I personally do not own any, but have a hankering for some beautiful pics of klippes. Anyone have some to share? -Dan

Not many klippes in "my" area so this is the closest I can do. Fun looking piece and fairly cheap when I bought it so what's not to like?

I like that coin! It is quite unusual indeed. -Dan

I wonder if this counts as a klippe?

Wow! I like that, but the price was pretty healthy... -Dan

I was very pleased to add this 1650 Nurnberg silver ducat klippe to the Holey Coin Vest with some trading, since I'd wanted a klippe for a long time. Previously, I had almost bought a cool Austrian one at a coin show. It was attractively priced, but I found it in the final hours of the show and I had spent nearly all of my budget. Had I bought that piece at the show, I'd have been spending my food money for the trip home, and playing gas-money roulette, as well.

I couldn't resist the little kid on the stick horse that this one features. It is one of my favorite holeys.
