Here is the reverse  I have a type 1 gold dollar (13mm) but it is slabbed, so not as dramatic a picture.

Cool, don't have pics but I am in the camp of the Panama 1904 2 1/2 centesimos (smallest 10mm) and a Australia Lunar Series II coin (largest 45.6mm)

I got some new coins since I last posted. I'm calling Finn's bet:   And I'll raise: (edit: I'm not trying to belittle your coins, Finn. I think they are amazing. Just trying to make a joke here.  )

Oh, just you wait until I find one of these on ebay:  It's on!  But really, you have an amazing Chinese collection; one of the best I am aware of that isn't in a museum.

I do not have a pic of them together. That first small Panama coin is 10 mm and my largest coin is 45mm in this post...

My smallest: 1950-2017 Asian fantasy 1/10 fanam?    (diameter is 1.90-1.93 mm -- Third image shows it next to a Lincoln Cent. There is also a 1 mm stage micrometer in the frame, with markings every 10 microns.) My largest: Australia -- 30 dollars, 2018:   (diameter = 100.6 mm) Here are the two coins combined together with Photoshop, with the same pixels/mm scale, to show their relative size:  (Note that there are 4 copies of the image with the 1/10 fanam and Lincoln Cent pasted into the corners of the larger iage.) The large coin (1000g) weighs about 43000-45000 times more than the small coin (22mg-23mg).
