Looks like I can move us forward today with this Austian 3 Kreuzer dated 1698 AD. It was minted at Prague.

1697 was a very high mintage figure for English coins, as that year the last of the old milled coins were withdrawn.

1697 sixpence:

I'm going to slip this French Liard under the wire for 1696 AD. It was minted at Lille.

So, 1695...

Sure, why not.

I have another small Silesian coin, a 3 pfennig (groeschel) from the Brieg mint:

1694 szostak (6 groschen) of the Duchy of Courland and Semigalia under the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
Courland was the southernmost part of the former Livonia, and came under Lithuanian rule in the aftermath of the Livonian wars of the mid-1500s. It remained a semi-independent entity with its coins featuring the names/titles of its local ruler (in this case Friedrich Casimir), as well as emblems of its overlord (coat of arms of Poland-Lithuania).

From the 2nd restrike, performed 1693-99. It is struck on a coin from the 1st restrike (performed 1690-93), with traces of that coin visible on both sides.

Wow, a pair of lovely coins!

I've got a third "big hair" coin for today, this 1693 15 kreuzer from the Bishopric of Breslau (replete with die cracks, planchet flaws, etc but otherwise fairly attractive):
