My pics of a 1709 Salzburg 1/2 Dukat that arrived today. Auction winnings in Europe.
It is a rare issue minted under Archbishop Franz Anton von Harrach. Its 17mm in diameter (slightly smaller than a dime).

A 1/2 ducat is a small coin .. the 1/4 must have been real tiny. It amazes me how they can get all that detail on such small coins.
I may have to keep my eye open for one.
