Alas, this day came unexpectedly, and I did not have time to take better photos. So I'll just post whatever pics I already had.

Poland-Lithuania, Sigismund II
1 denar 1556, Danzig (Gdansk) mint

Yeah, it's pretty chipped; in fact, IIRC, it had chipped a bit further since I bought it.

Also, while I sadly don't recall the exact size offhand... that thing's rather tiny.

@jan1may, that Gdansk denar looks to be struck more sharply than mine for 1555 which is posted below. Not sure if yours has a defective planchet, or chipping after minting. I see many denars from this reign with very irregular shapes.
Since you mentioned the very small size I have included a reference with our smallest current U.S. circulating coin.
