    This tiny coin thread is so interesting.

    The coins are all beautiful and the details on each coin are fascinating to imagine the art and workmanship that created each one, during those ancient time periods.

    I hope it continues with more posts.

    I like its contrast with my smallest coin. The THICKNESS of my 15-Shekels is almost twice the WIDTH of that Tetartemorion!

    Kinda reminds me of when they compare Earth to Jupiter.

    I thought I had a fairly small coin. I just measured my smallest coin, and it was between 9-10mm. That's huge compared to what some of you have posted. So, I'll just continue with my bigger tiny ancient coins, lol.

    I am still at a loss to attribute my coin to an acceptable reference example, When a coin is unpublished what is the logical assumption to be made from that???
