<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2041658, member: 19463&quot;]This coin seems so well centered that it lost all the outside legends and I&#039;m lost where to start with the ID.&nbsp; Comparing to other coins of the general type, I see the lion in a different pose than most (prancing rather than rearing) and the castle a simple box without the 3D shape seen on some.&nbsp; Left of the castle is what I am reading as PR (for Philip?) while to the right is a large D with a small o above (mintmark).&nbsp; Most troubling to me is my inability to find an ID site online for base metal coins but there seems to be a lot on gold and silver.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Any hints or outright ID would be appreciated but I especially would like to know what is missing from this specimen (what did the legends say) and what clues that can be seen make the coin something I should have been able to ID (ruler, denomination, date, mint).&nbsp; What is under the lion&#039;s raised paw? </p><p>Thanks.[ATTACH=full]372793[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
