<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Seattlite86, post: 8663867, member: 59737&quot;]Great questions that I really wanted to hold off on and focus on the coin, but I’m happy to answer.</p><p>1. I’m moving to Belgium in the near future and have been reading up on their history. This would be my first coin that reflects my new home and studies.</p><p>2. I don’t think so. Edit: no, but here is another 2 Stuiver example: <a href="https://www.numisbids.com/n.php?p=lot&amp;sid=2421&amp;lot=80" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.numisbids.com/n.php?p=lot&amp;sid=2421&amp;lot=80" rel="nofollow">https://www.numisbids.com/n.php?p=lot&amp;sid=2421&amp;lot=80</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Here’s a link to a certified 1/2 Stuiver: <a href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/184995689201" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/184995689201" rel="nofollow">https://www.ebay.com/itm/184995689201</a></p><p>Here’s another example: <a href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces178569.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces178569.html" rel="nofollow">https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces178569.html</a></p><p>3. The counterstamp is known and was controlled by the government.</p><p>4. I don’t have enough knowledge of this to be sure. The seller is quite reputable and would not disclose the concern unless it could be legitimate.</p><p>5. If real, this coin would have been struck in Deventer, by the Count of Renneberg, during the siege of Deventer in 1578, where the Dutch defeated the German troops fighting foe the Spanish, who controlled the region at the time. This would have them be demonetized with this stamp after the battle ended and the coins were recovered.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
