My grandfather passed down his collection to me and this was one of the ones in there. It looks to be a German 6 Kreutzer , dated 1795, B mint? Does anyone have any reference on it?

I do not know how many of your coin was minted though, sorry. As a reference to Astrian mint marks during this period. The Mint that minted your coin also used the following mint marks: B, K, KB. __________________ Templar Knights Motto NON NOBIS, DOMINE, NON NOBIS, SED TUD NOMINI GLORIAM   05-26-2009, 09:50 PM   #8 (permalink) ryanbrooks US Coin Collector     Join Date: Nov 2007 Location: Albuquerque Posts: 2,393 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by regandon Some of the minor coinage had high mintage numbers.

That's alright, not to worry. It's still a beautiful coin from my point of view.   05-26-2009, 09:54 PM   #9 (permalink) regandon Senior Member     Join Date: Feb 2009 Posts: 328 My Mood: Yes it is a very nice coin, and it was your grandfathers.
