Here is a Polish Solidas from 1662 AD:   "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

Quote:Sounds made up. The Livonia part, or them being conquered by the Swedish? If the latter, Sweden used to own a lot more areas than it does today.  ----- For 1661, I have yet another 1 solidus piece from Swedish Livonia:  Rather than properly storing this coin in one of my binders, I have it in a pile of Livonian culls on my desk. Because it is not technically in my collection, I am not going to take a proper picture of it. Instead, I am just going to use an already-uploaded picture of a size comparison that was used in the Tiny Coins thread. |

The Livonia part, or them being conquered by the Swedish? The Swedish Livonia part. It just sounds funny, like Micronesia, even though they are actual places. Anyway... This is most likely the last coin I will post here: 1661 Polish-Lithuanian solidus/szelag:   In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020
In Memory of Tootallious 3-31-1964 to 4-15-2020

Here is a Szelag from Lithuania dated 1661 AD:   BTW, thanks to @jbuck and @spruette for their contributions--hope you stick around this thread! "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

Very interesting adjustment marks--both sides of the coin @pepactonius! Here is a 2 Albus from the German Archbishopric of Cologne dated 1659 AD:   "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."
