    Many, many years ago, I had a bulk lot that had many types of coins from varied places and times. I initially sorted everything by sizish, lookish, etc. Well, I’m finally back to revisiting some of these groups and this is the group of what I would guess would be silver pfennigs, bracteates, etc. I have taken the liberty of NOT trying to identify, classify or otherwise determine their identity, value or general information. Feel free to throw any information out that you would like to share about these. But, I am going to most likely sell these, so I just want that to be known so no one gets upset. Basically, these are not what I collect and I don’t have time to devote to figuring them out before I sell them. Thank you, in advance for any responses.

    Oh gosh. Way outside of my expertise, but several of these look like medieval German pfennigs, specifically the ones with the beaded border. I own one that was sold to me as being from Cologne, but I've never taken the time to confirm. It's incredibly thin and fragile. With some time and id could be had by looking up the crests. The bracteates are another story as I know even less about them! But, it's a cool looking group none the less!
