<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ian, post: 21186, member: 283&quot;]It&#039;s definitely german in origin. It&#039;s a&nbsp; 1/2 groschen (1/48 ein thaler) and judging from the side with the crowned eagle it reads VGG Friedrich&nbsp; Marg. Z BA.... That is, Friedrich, Margrave of Baden.....(Baden Durlach line) perhaps? I can&#039;t find a match for it under Baden Durlach however. I also thought it could be one of the Brandenburg lines (ie not Marg. Z BA but rather Marg. Z. BR). It would fit better with coins i see from Brandenburg....but it is nigh on impossible from the scan to make out the coat of arms.</p><p><br /></p><p>That&#039;s my best guess. I wouldn&#039;t give the coin a value of more than $2 in that condition. It could be worth a good bit more if the pvc poison was removed (making attribution a heck of a lot easier in the process).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
