chris421649 Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 I have a coin I cannot identify. It has the inscription JOANNES.V1.D.G.PORT.BR.ET ALG.R 1821 on the head side, and UTILITATI PUBLIC on the reverse, and then what looks like an A and E joined together followed by the number 40. I am sorry I can not post a photo but my scanners on the blink The coin itself is bronze or brass, 35mm in diameter and very heavy. I assume JOANNES V1 is the monarch but king or queen I dont know. I would be gratefull for any help I get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
