    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    Try taking better photos of the obverse in focus.

    Your pictures of the reverse are upside down - they show a prancing pony.

    I'm going to shoot a guess of 1600's Lithuania, but I don't have the references to narrow that down.

    It looks Middle East. try to take your photos from straight above. It is necessary for proper identification.

    Lithuania?
    It's hand struck, could be a screw press?

    Thanks again. I can not get a better picture, Could it be doubled stamped that is adding to the issue?

    Hello: I do not know if at this point it is worth adding something.
    I think it is as mentioned before John II Casimir Vasa (1649-1668), only with some minting error of which I can not contribute anything ... I leave what I have here in case it is still of some use.
