City of Basel 1724 1/2 batzen Very cool desing in that first photo bd251. Can;t tell if that's something mythical like a griffon, or more mundane like a rooster. I've got a 1724 half ecu of Lorraine for today:   |

Uniface coin in the 18th century? Not something that I have really studied, but it seems to me that the concept of a recognizable design on only one side of the coin goes back to BC times. "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."
