    Bought a lot of primarily 17th and 18th C. French coins, with a smattering of other countries (Norway, Russia, etc). With the help of Google and Numista I’ve nailed down all except a couple. This one has me stumped.

    I’m sure the large V through the O & C, or the two lions below a crown will be recognized by someone.

    In its worn state it is about 23mm and weighs 3 g, and is either silver or billon.

    yes, Netherlands-Indies. this was basically a coin of the Dutch East India Company wasnt it? Similar in size and weight to the British EIC Coppers issued for India
