Is this considered a rare coin? Does anyone know anything about these?

thats a nice coin.. next time use full image not thumbnail..

 

where is it from ? what denomination is it ?

 

It was the only picture I could I find online. I clicked on it and it sent me to a completely different coin. I’ll post pics of mine when I get a chance

 

Denmark 8 Skilling Lybsk minted under the reign of Christian IV.

 

I think Denmark. I’m not really sure what it is. It says 8 skiling on it. I don’t know what that is equivalent too.

 

Thank you! Do you know if this a good coin?

 

I’m sorry my pics aren’t the best ‍♀️

 

TheRed is correct. Denmark/Gluckstadt. In my 2003 3rd edition Krause catalog KM#30.2 1642 8 Skilling Lybsk. .812 silver
grade/value
G-$40.00 VG-$80.00 F-$185.00 VF-$375.00
I am not sure what your coins grade is ?
The values might be higher now on the current market ?

 

Wow!! thank you so much!! So informative. I honestly have no idea about the grading. I have a box of random coins from my father I’m trying to sort through. None were graded.

 

I look forward to seeing more of your fathers world coins.

 

You're in the right place. Don't clean any of these. Just show the ones you want to, as they are. We take them as we find them.

 

Someone here will know what each of the coins is... Welcome to CT
