<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lordmarcovan, post: 2720917, member: 10461&quot;]I think it&#039;s a Denmark/Gluckstadt 1/16 thaler (1/16 Speciedaler), as Aethelred mentioned.</p><p><br /></p><p>Should be <a href="https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/denmark-gluckstadt-1-16-speciedaler-km-11-1623-1625-cuid-1063131-duid-1239791" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/denmark-gluckstadt-1-16-speciedaler-km-11-1623-1625-cuid-1063131-duid-1239791" rel="nofollow">KM11</a>, or similar.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Denmark-Gluckstadt-1-16-Speciedaler-ND-VF-Details-NGC-silver-KM-11-RARE-/351127790954?_trksid=p2141725.m3641.l6368" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Denmark-Gluckstadt-1-16-Speciedaler-ND-VF-Details-NGC-silver-KM-11-RARE-/351127790954?_trksid=p2141725.m3641.l6368" rel="nofollow">Here is one on eBay</a>, but don&#039;t get excited by that seller&#039;s asking price.&nbsp; That seller is an honest professional I&#039;ve done business with several times, but he has rather notorious, crack-pipe-crazy notions about pricing all too often.</p><p><br /></p><p>Personally, I&#039;d call your coin a VG, which would likely make it worth about $45 according to the Krause link above.&nbsp; This is based on the assumption that it is a 1623 of the KM11 type.&nbsp; You can see the &quot;16&quot; of the date in the cartouche on the obverse, and there would be a &quot;Z3&quot; (in other words, an old-style &quot;23&quot;) at the end of the obverse legend, about 10:00-11:00 in your first picture above.</p><p><br /></p><p>What makes things difficult is that Krause does not include pictures of most of these early types.&nbsp; The eBay listing shows a definitely similar coin, but the legends don&#039;t match up <i>exactly</i> with yours.&nbsp; Of course variants were common in this era.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=44657" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=44657" rel="nofollow">Here&#039;s another</a> I managed to Google up.&nbsp; It looks very similar to yours, and you can clearly read the &quot;Z3&quot; (23) on that example.</p><p><br /></p><p>So we&#039;re pretty close, anyway.</p><p><br /></p><p>Neat old coin!&nbsp; Welcome![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
