Not entirely sure on the details. Perhaps someone could help?

 

And then a Fench coin that I just got today! Haven´t had time to attribute yet.
Anyone?

 

Elblag (Poland) Solidus 1632 under the rule of Gustav II Adolf of Sweden.

 

More Gustav II Adolf of Sweden:
1 Kreutzer 1632

 

... and ½ Riksdaler 1632 (RRR)

 

Würzburg (Gustav II Adolf) ½ Taler 1632

 

And finally a magnificent gold dukat of Gustav II Adolf 1632

 

Kimotej - I am not sure what details you are looking for. Your coin, as you probably know, is a Silesian issue of Emperor Ferdinand II, struck in Breslau. The HZ on the reverse is the mintmark of mintmaster Hans Ziesler (1632-5). The 3 billet hooks (or Zainhaken) mm on the reverse may also be his. The Krause reference is KM 114.

 

Not kreuzer but ore.

 

Actually, it is a kreuzer. It was issued in the areas of Northern Germany that the Swedes conquered. It had only half of the amount of copper for the denomination though. Swedishcoppers.com talks about it. Here’s the image he uses.

Must be time for 1631:

Regensburg, 2 kreuzer:

 

1631 Germany GREIFSWALD Besieged by Gustavus II Adolphus of Sweden
4 sundischen Schillinge

Unfortunately it is a later copy so I suppose it does not count

 

1630 -- Austria, 10 kreuzer:

 

Yet a different portrait of Gaston d'Orleans


Dombes, Gaston d'Orleans, double tournois - 1630

Q

 

Elbing (the city in modern Poland) Swedish occupation.
1/24 thaler 1629.

 

Great three kreuzer! As best as I can figure out (no guarantees), you have a Ferdinand II Bohemia three kreuzer (groschen). However, I cannot place the HZ at six o'clock on the reverse. It rings a bell but not clearly.

The Standard Catalog of World Coins, 1600-1700 (6th edition) (2014 edition) has some poor photos or scans of coins that look like yours - Bohemia, KM#s 369, 370, 371. But I can't find that HZ . . . I know, I'll do what any reasonable person would do today - google it!

Found it - https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces77338.html. Silesia mint. KM 114. What fun!

 

I'm going to go with a double tournois - Louis XVII. I can't see a any marks so I will risk only KM 72.X or 86.X.

 

1628 F - German States, Bamberg - 4 kreuzer.
