thedeadpoint Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 No idea. But I'm thoroughly stuck on this one. Mark, I know nothing about non-US coins. I hope someone figures yours out. You've given great clues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Stilson Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 Wild Man   Wild man Thaler, groschen, mariengroschen originally wanted the coin below but later would have taken any denomination.  Germany Brunswick-Wolfenbuttel 12 mariengroschen (1/3 Thaler) Rudolf August wild man grasping stick KM 504 Somebody needed to make change out of this one. Old cut on edge.   One of the clues.  Go "Bowling" with Little red riding hood and the big bad "xxxx" in "Montana" "Brunswick makes bowling balls" The big bad "Wolf" in "Butte" Montana  Figured this one would have been easier since I had the coin on omni.

Vfox Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 4.Some might say the birth of something modern. (Mine is a restrike, so definitely modern.)   Is it a Spanish milled 8 reale (pillar dollar)? I know milled coinage predates this but it's first in the redbook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
