    Bought this from a bid board marked "Cool Old Coin". Not sure even where to start on it. Anyone recognize it? 17 mm 1.52 g

    I'm lazing around today and had 20 minutes to kill on google - the key for me was deciphering CIVITAS.

    Google Image Search: Started with terms in combination like medieval bust left castle reverse coin -> medieval coin gate towers bust -> medieval coin fortified gate towers -> then CIVITAS gateway towers coin yielded the result.
