    I am fairly sure these are Crusades era coin, but I cannot figure out the exact attributions... not even close.
    The coin on the right is very thin and weighs between 0.6 and 0.7 grams (my scale does not calculate hundredths). The coin on the left weighs between 1.9 and 2.0 grams.
    Any help is very much appreciated! =)

    Not where I have books to look it up but the one on the right looks to be from the Netherlands. The other looks to be of middle eastern origins but no idea where.

    Hi,
    I tried searching medieval Netherlands coins and could not find anything like this. The most similar looking images I saw were of Cyprus coins, but again not exactly like this one. They did have the same type of lion and cross design. Will keep searching, thanks.
