Also this one. In a week time I`ll made better photo. One of my Polish friends told it can be the coin of Hesia or Salzburg, but he`s not sure. __________________ Take care!

Posts: 6,467 Tom,you certainly won't find that Salzburg 1 Pfennig in Krause,as it is from the 1560's,which is when Queen Elizabeth I was on the throne of England,& Scotland was going through some major upheavals.

I think it is enough for me, because I have some computer files with powerful database of older coins. Sometimes I have a problem with some German States coinage or Swiss Cantons... I belive some day the graet database will be created on-line, but when? __________________ Take care!

And it only covers coins back to 1600, gold coins back to 1500. __________________ knowledge ..... share it   01-11-2007, 06:30 AM   #10 (permalink) Aidan Work Numismatist   Join Date: Dec 2004 Location: Wellington,New Zealand.
