Guinness Record: Artist Makes Worlds Smallest Coin

This artist has reportedly made the world’s smallest coin replica - as seen here - and has submitted his achievement to Guinness World Records where he already holds the record for the world's smallest book.

Vladimir Aniskin, 46, a micro-art master from the city of Novosibirsk in the southern Russian region of Novosibirsk Oblast, wrote about his record attempt on social media where he asked friends to help buy the equipment needed for making the coin.

He said: “I spent the whole summer looking for ‘the smallest things’ registered with Guinness. It was not as easy as it appeared at first.”
