Here is the middle of an Elbing 1/24 Thaler date run for me (1633). And yes 30 years war stuff--thx for that helpful history @tdz!   "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

Sounds like spence will be migrating away from Elbing, but I'll stay there a few more years (though not as long as the Swedes). Here is a clipped and well worn trojak (3 groszy) from 1631   For those who have never heard of this place, its modern claim to fame is as a brewing center. You can see that distinctive coat of arms with the two stacked crosses on their label:  Edited by tdziemia

As hinted at previously, here is Ferdinand III with a super thick collar again, on this 1630 3 kreutzer of SIlesia. BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE! He also sports a cool hipster front flip hairdo! Whoda thunk a Holy Roman Emperor would be such a fashion trendsetter    Edited by tdziemia

That is a pretty sweet haircut @tdz! Don't you rock one just like that? Here is my Double Tournois from Dombes dated 1630. Both the collar and haircut are a bit more modest:   "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."
