Interesting...the little "sun" above Carl IX's head has Hebrew text that says "Jahweh".

It really is.

Quick question, without googling it, does anybody know how 1608 is important for the country and province I live in.

I've been working on getting a 1608 that would fit nicely into my collection, but without success so far.

I was brutally sniped last weekend on a very nice 1608 French double tournois.

Also this week I inquired about a 1608 Swedish 1 Mark piece for sale on Tradera but the seller doesn't take paypal.

(I just don't have the time or patience to leave work early and go to a special bank branch before they close at 4 and goof around with tellers trying to figure out how to do an international bank transfer. I will very gladly pay the seller's 4% paypal fees to avoid this hassle!)

I will keep looking, and post my new 1608 here when I finally get one, unless someone beats me to it!

Stay tuned! Don't touch that dial!
This is just a short lull in the action.

Funny 1608 should be so difficult. I have a nice 1607 lying in wait.... My father actually has a 1608 in his own collection, but he is not registered here (or anywhere else) and never will be.
