Here is something a tad older/ back in the days when Leaders of Nations were real men and led their armies personally into battle swinging sword and battle axes!
Imagine seeing Putin leading the attack in Andrivika
And Emperor Trajanus Decius how spent most days in the field fighting our guys (Germans) were he and his armie were annihilated. He was first Emperor to be KIA vs foreign enemies.

I'm afraid to even guess what that is worth. Yikes!! Very nice.

 

A little itty bity piece from Nepal.
1/8th Mohar, Nepal
King Girvan Yuddha Bikram Shah
1799-1816
.7 grams, 15mm

 

It must be tiny. .7 grams? How much smaller than a dime is it? The ancients, if they had couches, must have lost a lot of change behind the cushions!

 

It's about 2/3rd the size of a dime but half or less as thick. I bet I could bite it in half.

It is a pretty rare coin, most of these are found missing most of the dot's around the perimeter.

 

It's nice looking. And it's gold. That's enough for me to know.

 

Thanks.

 

Edited see Below.
The 1/8 Mohar is KM-538, C-83.
