<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DEA, post: 3093695, member: 90140&quot;]Okay!&nbsp; Cool gifts!&nbsp; No guarantees but this is what I think.</p><p><br /></p><p>The pictured 1607 coin is a Duchy of Saxe-Old-Gotha (Sachsen-Alt-Gotha) silver coin, ruled, at the time, by Johann Casimir (IOHA CAS) and (ET) Johann Ernst II (JOHA ERNST) (the two dudes on the obverse looking at each other).&nbsp; The C and O on the reverse by the date stands for the city where it was minted, Coburg.&nbsp; It is cataloged as KM #5, as well as Dav. 7426.&nbsp; My 2011 <i>Standard Catalog of German Coins</i> (3rd Edition) does not give a number minted but suggests VG $70, F $160, VF $280 and XF $500.&nbsp; What with the wear, the apparent cleaning, and the soldered ring, I (me - just me) would not pay more than . . . ahhhh . . . say $30. </p><p><br /></p><p>Hope this helps point you in the right direction.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
