j_hewes Valued Member United States 52 Posts	Posted 06/27/2016 11:26 pm Hello again, I see this coin offered at a European site, labeled as a "medieval German bracteate (Hohlpfennig)". But it doesn't look like other German bracteates I can find. It has some similarity to Danish/Estonian bracteates or French/Strasbourg deniers. At bottom I have included a picture of what I usually think of as a "German" bracteate. Can anyone ID it or offer some additional suggestions about where in Europe this may have come from? Much perplexed, John * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff
