Crocione 1796 minted in Milano under Austrian Rule. The obverse shows Franciscus II, emperor of the Holy Roman Empire.  The reverse has 3 crowns: Emperor, King and Archduke. The golden fleece below the flaming cross signifies his authority over the Catholic Southern Netherlands (most of today's Belgium and two Dutch provinces). It goes back to Burgundy rule (15th century).

Here is perhaps my largest coin--a Russian 5 Kopeks from 1795 AD. It weighs over 44 g and is 43 mm in diameter!
