    I picked this one up several years ago. I got it really cheap (maybe 1.5X melt at the time) from a PCGS forum member because it was obviously cleaned, but I pulled it out recently and it seems to be aging gracefully.

    It's not a high grade coin, but I rather like its crudeness, as well as the historic date: 1648 marked the Peace of Westphalia, ending the 30 years war as well as the lesser known 80 years war, or Dutch War of Independence.
