Picked up a handful of 19th century crowns for melt this week. Shot a couple of my usual metalporn metalpiles. Feel free to use as screen savers if you're so moved image

    Cool. What is that small gold coin in the very bottom right hand corner of the first picture? I don't believe I have seen one of those before.

    My guess is a Czechoslovakian dukat coin from the 20s or 30s... but I'll let the owner chime in. image
