<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The Eidolon, post: 24561273, member: 102103&quot;]Another tough one.&nbsp; Crossed keys make me think Papal States.</p><p>I think the text reads (approximately):</p><p>ob:&nbsp; &quot;P M A VI&quot; ...&nbsp; &quot;INN XII&quot;&nbsp; (Pontifex Maximus year 12)</p><p>rev:&nbsp; &quot;[SANC]TVS&quot;&nbsp; Saint (Peter?&nbsp; Paul?&nbsp; Usbaldus?)</p><p>So it&#039;s probably a quattrino of Pope Innocent XII, such as <a href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces148019.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces148019.html" rel="nofollow">this one</a>.</p><p>If it is year VI, I think that would be 1696</p><p>The saint text looks like &quot;PAV&quot; for &quot;Paulus&quot; to me, but I can&#039;t find a St. Paul type on Numista that&#039;s a close match for the date/pope/metal of the coin.&nbsp; Mysterious.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1556110[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
