    I try to keep my eye out for pre 1500 dated European coins and couldn't resist this one. Being from the Levinson collection is just an added bonus. This is my second Levinson collection coin. His plate coin in the book is a bit better but I'm very happy with this one. This is the sellers photo.

    Feel free to pile on with your early dated European coins. Anybody have something dated earlier than the 1470's?
