    Hi folks.
    Got a problem to ID this one. It was in the UK. About 38mm (2.5 inch) and 20gm. Any idea ? The cross makes me thinking about Portuguese or Spanish types...

    I really don't know alot about these coins but I would guess Portugal - based on the left image coat of arms. Maybe King Philip from the 16th century.

    No idea- but you can see a shield inside a shield.

    Why what do you think it is Ardatirion?

    In an earlier thread, I'd told Rudi to check under Portugal. I agree with you!
