Hussulo Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 Hi, I bought this on eBay I think it could be a die trial but I am not sure if it's for a coin or medal. It is maybe austrian, It is uniface the legend reads "otp. &. carn. dux. com. rittb. s. c. m. cons. intaur. velleris eques", the reverse is blank. It is 45 mm and made from possibly tin or may be lead. Can anyone help me please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hussulo Posted January 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 Reminds me of the seal off a very expensive bottle top! It was suggest it could be a seal on anouther forum aswel Geordie, so you could be right. However someone else on the other forum said "Same legend/coat of arms as 18th century Liechtenstein coinage. " It does appear to be the same design as Liechtenstein coinage below is a picture of an 1900 coin reverse. I can't find any pictures of coins dating to the 17th century though.

Andrey5 Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 This looks like the reverse of the Liechtenstein Thaler issued in 1778. http://www.omnicoin.com/coin_view_enlarge.aspx?id=919130 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
