<p>[QUOTE=&quot;benhur767, post: 2965117, member: 36818&quot;]I inherited this coin from my grandfather in 1975. I finally got around to taking a photo. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Here it is with an attribution. It&#039;s the only coin of this era that I own; normally I&#039;m into ancients. Does anyone here collect these types of coins? If so, please comment or share your own images:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]726534[/ATTACH]</p><p><b>Ferdinand II</b>; Holy Roman Emperor 1619–37.
