i believe this to be a prague groshen circa 1300 not a particulaly good one but it is the only one i have

 

Unfortunately the coin is too far gone to tell for sure. It could be a Praguer Groschen, but I can't say for certain. Sorry.

Hi Bruce.

 

Do you have reference material for the 1300's? AND.....any other reference/catalogs up to 1600 that you'd use to help ID coins?

 

attributing coins can sometimes be a real challenge, eh?

thanks mud, i do not have a manual, even if i did, my eyes have such poor vision that it would be unread., apart from a few of my coins, most are metal detecting finds and as you will know are never really in top condition. but whatever comes out the ground, i regard it as a saved coin.

Where is the picture? If I could see the avers (side with the crown), I might be able to help identifying the period.

 

Alternatively, compare with a few I have

This is not a Prague Groschen.

It is 1/24 Thaler (3 Polker) of Brandenburg-Prussia of 1622 under Georg Wilhelm (ruled from 1619 to 1640).
