Russian Empire 1793 EM 5 kopecks
36.0g, 44.0mm


I have a few of these to share in the next couple decades. At 36g, this extremely light example feels almost like a "normal" coin in hand compared to the "standard" weight of 51.2g.

It took me a while to figure out how to count bd251's coin; the Zeno category has a bunch of 763 AH examples, but they all seem to have the strokes set up differently.
AFAICT it's a double die match to Zeno 117210 - which doesn't have a legible date either, but it's a date-side die match to Zeno 271168, which does. A complicated coin!

Somehow, in all my searching, I missed that there were 763-dated ones as well. I guess that's what I get for trusting Numista on a coin like this before going to zeno

I have two for AH 725

Delhi Sultanate 6 gani


Golden Horde
Uzbek Khan
AE pul
795 (AH 725)
Lebedev #m48a, zeno cat# 6859


Edit: I'm pretty sure these are my last dated coins for a few hundred years.

Very interesting coin, bd251!
And the 1811 is really cool too - Napoleon!

Thanks @Hondo. The chunky hammered coins were known as "bonks" meaning "big pieces" in Dutch.

For 1806 I have a UK farthing
