    I believe I posted this coin months ago with sub-par photographs from which no determinations could be made. So, I have better photos now and any help identifying this coin would be much appreciated. I'm 98% certain it is Hungarian, but I don't have a Krause and online databases have turned up empty.
    Any help is greatly appreciated. The photos get much larger if you click on them.

    I can recognize the words (or abbreviations) "Theresa by the grace of God imperial regent of Hungary, Bohemia" 1761. There are a few other letters I can't match (GE, RBG). Maria Theresa was the queen of the Austro-Hungarian empire at that time, so it's from somewhere in that area, but I don't know enough to tell you more.

    The design looks similar, but not identical, to the 1760-1766 1 Denár: Link

    That's it.
    The bad part it: I search Numista and still missed it lol. Guess it just blended in with the others.
    Thanks a ton! This thing has literally been sitting without a label for a few months now.
