<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PaddyB, post: 1754248, member: 40017&quot;]Hi SecTPB - sorry for the delay in responding - I saw your pics first thing this morning but I have been out all day.</p><p>Having said that, I am not sure how much help I can be:</p><p>1. Definitely is Netherlands in design, but I am struggling to find any combination of 6 Stuiver with a split lion shield and a knight reverse - most have a sailing ship reverse. Also yours looks brassy, and I would expect silver? Could it be a contemporary forgery of some sort? If the second half of the shield emblem is a second lion, that would suggest West Friesland province. I have the books only back to 1601 so I am not sure if this design might be earlier?</p><p>2. Looks more like a pendant from the Arts and Crafts movement - around 1890 to 1910. It has a hand made look about it, and the Celtic knot was a popular design. I can&#039;t work out much of the reverse - the zigzag pattern may relate to one of the schools of this movement.</p><p>3. Looks firmly Indian to me, but again not a regular coin - might be a temple token as the reverse seems to relate to some sort of offering. If you can find someone to read the obverse writing you would be closer.</p><p>That&#039;s the best I can do![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
