[QUOTE="calcol, post: 2911204, member: 77639"]Nice to see the groschen. When I lived in Austria in the 1970's, I thought "groschen", which was 1/100 of a schilling, was a funny name because it means little big one. Apparently though, "gros" and various linguistic variations have been used as the name of small coins for centuries in different times and places. Cal[/QUOTE]
