[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 2750554, member: 10461"][INDENT] Is this coin made of gold? [COLOR=#ff0000]No- it is pretty apparently silver, albeit with some goldish toning. [/COLOR] Is it a coin for spending or something else, like a medal? [COLOR=#ff0000]Good question. I wondered the same thing.[/COLOR] (it doesn't have any legend on it at all) [COLOR=#ff0000]Yep. It's [B][I]anepigraphic[/I][/B]. There's another fancy word. [/COLOR] Is it medieval? [COLOR=#ff0000]No- the style is far too "modern" for that. I would guess 18th or 19th century, myself, and lean towards the latter, based on style.[/COLOR] Is it Czech? Is it Bohemian? [COLOR=#ff0000]Also good questions, and as good a guess as anything I've got, I suppose.[/COLOR][/INDENT] [COLOR=#000000]Good riddle! Handsome mystery piece! And a good thread.[/COLOR][/QUOTE]
