This might be a fun thread - post your coin showing someone with an impressive beard - I'll call it the Mr Beardy thread - (to be modern and PC it really doesn't have to be a "Mr" though I suspect most images will be).

Extra kudos for unusual designs or something that really lifts the beard out of the ordinary.

I'll kick off with this one.

LOL OK, I like this one of Charles I of England from 1647 because it kinda reminds me of Stinky Pete from Toy Story!

Some excellent examples of face furniture there - I thought Mexico's Maxillilian would make an appearance - William II (Netherlands) is an unusual one - I can't imagine why that went out of fashion... And Victor Emanuele has certainly put a lot of effort into his - very "Cavalier" - obviously taking tips from Charles I there :)

OK, so it's a token; but it's also one heck of a beard.
