<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 28117, member: 112&quot;]Just thought I would share a couple more of my newest acquisitions. The first is a Venetian ducat issued by the Doge of Venice, Michele Steno 1400-1413. It can be said of the Venetian ducat that it literally changed the face of the world. And it holds the distinction of being the coin continuously struck for the longest period of time - over 500 yrs.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.gdjmsp.cointalk.org/coin_pics/Misc/1400%20Venetian%20ducat%20obv.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.gdjmsp.cointalk.org/coin_pics/Misc/1400%20Venetian%20ducat%20rev.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>This next coin is one whose design many of you have grown used to seeing posted by me - the Netherlands ducat. This example was struck in the province of Holland in 1595. This design is still being used today on gold ducats issued the Royal Dutch Mint - after over 400 yrs of continuous striking.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.gdjmsp.cointalk.org/coin_pics/Netherlands/1595%20Netherlands%20ducat%20AU58%20obv.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.gdjmsp.cointalk.org/coin_pics/Netherlands/1595%20Netherlands%20ducat%20AU58%20rev.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
