    I was surprised when checking this tiny coin and found out that the portrait on the obverse is different from all I've seen so far. It belongs to the Fallen Horseman series, and even the reverse is somewhat strange to me in design. Appreciate your comments.. SFH O.jpg SFH R.jpg

    Yes, an imitative piece, and a nice one.

    It looks as if the horse and not the horseman is turning its head to the knight. Ha.. BTW. the coin weighs 1.5 g.
