Many beautiful copper liards have been shown here  . Here is the very first one (that was minted in copper). Sort of a test coin, with a mintage of about 5000. The mint mark A was normally used by Paris, but due to unrest in the capital, the Paris mint was temporarily moved to nearby Corbeil. France: 1 liard 1654, Louis XIV, Corbeil (A)

Quote: France: 1 liard 1654, Louis XIV, Corbeil (A) beautiful and rare copper coin, impressive piece ! below is a copper jeton 1654 from the Spanish Netherlands, produced by the chamber of finances in Brussels showing a portrait of Philippe IV and the Burgundy cross and briquet (which we will probably see more often during the coming months)

I agree that we have had some amazing coins so far today. Here is an Albus from the German Archbishopric of Mainz dated AD 1654:

@1c5d, I liked the "two handed" Antwerp jeton of 1654, and on that lovely 1655 Quote: the Burgundy cross and briquet (which we will probably see more often during the coming months) I agree. I think my Philippe IV comes up in about 2 weeks ...

I apologize for the poor pictures and I need to redo them at some point but this thing is tiny!! 1654 - Brandenburg-Prussia - Friedrich Wilhelm AR schilling, 15.5mm, 0.5 grams KM#263 Off-center strike (as most are) 5.6 million of these were minted, a large and impressive mintage given the date!
