<p>[QUOTE=&quot;THCoins, post: 2226601, member: 57364&quot;]Not really into these, but it seems not to be to difficult ?</p><p><br /></p><p>First, on these types i try to find some orientation by finding the title of the ruler. Which is often Rex or Dux. With some guessing i see DUX starting from about 4 o&#039;clock on your upper pic. Before the title should be a name, which i can&#039;t read. After the title is what he is ruler of. Again with some guessing i read STETTIN. Now Stettin used to be a German city in the Duchy of Pommern. The central element of this side is a Griffin. Google tells me the coat of arms of the Dukes of Pommern is a Griffin. So we are at the right track. In 1505 the name of the ruler was Bogislaus. The last letters might fit with whats before Dux.</p><p>Again some googling shows there is a Shilling issued under Bogislaus X with on the reverse the shield of Rugen on a long cross. And that again fits with your coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>So this is a Shilling of Stettin mint in Pommern, issued under Bogislaus X.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
