The consistency of the British farthing is amazing. That one from 1672 is almost exactly the same design as was used until the late 1930s.

Some corrections on two of my coins (Thanks Medieval for correcting my post)
1670, 6 kreuzer:
The mintmaster is not Leopold I. It should be ruler. This was a mistake in Google Translate
Styria: region in south eastern Austria and not Germany. This is my mistake
1668, 1 ducaton:
The ruler, Maximilian Hendrik (Henry or Heinrich), is from the House of Wittelsbach and therefor a cadet from Bavaria. He was Archbishop of Cologne and in his capacity Prince-Bishop of Liege.
Again thanks Mediëval for the corrections!
