Austria
The coin is weakly struck and a bit rough but it has a
nice clear date.

 

Back to another micro-state! Liechtenstein! I guess that means our travels will take us next to Switzerland.

From the mint in Hochst.

Isle Of Man, Half Cent 1839

 

Finally, a chance to post an Irish coin!!! This is one of my favorites!

 

I'm going to switch it up and take us (in a straight line!) across the pond. Cuba!

Off to Haiti!

 

Off to the Bahamas!!

From Canada-Newfoundland I take us to the United States of America with an amusing pair of 1975 Denver imprinted pennies (or one-cent pieces, if you prefer).

Sorry, I forgot where I was.

From the USSR-Russian Empire to the second Polish Republic - 10 groszy, 1923 (Y 11).

1950 Sweden 5 ore

 

Oh, my! I don't think I've played this one before. Livonia! At the time Sweden owned this plot of land, which is today parts of Estonia and Latvia; maybe parts of present day Lithuania.

I'll sneek this one in. One of my favorites.
