    Winner's receipt: pending

    This 1505 Hungarian silver denar was donated by Louie J, aka @tibor, who, as you may know, specializes in early dated coins. By this I mean coins with actual dates on them, from the early 1500s and before. Prior to the 1600s, European coins were usually undated, but this piece clearly bears the date 1505 above the coat of arms on one side, and the Virgin Mary and baby Christ child on the other.

    Want it? Just speak up, and be sure to thank @tibor.

    He also donated 1537 and 1538 denars, which I will be giving away on Collectors Universe.

    Thanks Mister @tibor for your contribution to this contest!!

    Hungry for this terrific coin. It would be my oldest coin, beside an ancient that I have, I think anyways. :rolleyes:
