    Germany - 1625 two-kreuzer from Speyer. Speyer is one of those towns that brings out the absolute history-geek in me. Spectacular stuff there.

    Neat coin! I just bought one on ebay, think it is the raised type. Now I will have to search for an incuse one. Here is Sweden 2016 5 kronor

    GB. James I shilling with mm. lis dating it to the period 3rd July 1623 to 17th June 1624. The plume above the shield indicates it was struck from Welsh silver.

    How about Belgium? We might be able to go bar hopping and try out some kriek beer. Sounds so very good.

    One 1939 franc . . .

    Of course, given the opportunity, I will take us back to Germany. I love the variety of eagles on the five and ten mark coins. This is a modern BRD ten-mark coin.

    And we go round in circles. A James I second bust penny with mm. Thistle, dating it to the period 24th March 1603 to 22nd May 1604, though it will likely be in the second half being the later bust.

    Okay, here's another opportunity for Germany. But I will resist the temptation and take us to Belgium. A 2017 Belgian five-euro. Quite a time-warp from 1728 to 2017, eh?

    Next stop, Poland! I'm going to get medieval on y'all! Isn't that close to a quote from a movie? A Bruce Willis movie?

    Anyway, Poland. A 1625 six-poker (KM 41, variety 1).
