BTW, and completely OT - There's a very good book on Protestant refugees from Salzburg who settled in America - The Salzburger Saga: Religious Exiles and Other Germans Along the Savannah by George Fenwick Jones. Provides an excellent overview of social/religious history in Salzburg during the time your klippe circulated, leading to the later expulsion and eventual settlement in Georgia (where most of the book is focused).

You rang?
Hey, nice one! I love klippes, and other non-round coins. Love Salzburg stuff, too. I've had a number of St. Rupert pieces, but never a klippe.
Here is my one and only, a Nurnberg silver ducat klippe, from my Holey Coin Vest. I got this in a fortuitous forum trade a while back, and the little kid with the stick horse on it really made this one all the more appealing to me.
Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.
Love the design.
