Yep, sorry for the delay. Here is a Groschen from the German State of Silesia-Liegnitz-Brieg. It is dated 1542 AD. The attribution is Kopicki 4920 and Saurma 135.

Excellent work and some nice examples to get us moving again.

I have changed the title, but remember, 1540 is for tomorrow.

This is portrait of Sigismund I of Poland (Polish: Zygmunt I Stary, Lithuanian: Žygimantas I Senasis; 1 January 1467 - 1 April 1548), of the Jagiellon dynasty, reigned as King of Poland and also as the Grand Duke of Lithuania from 1506 until 1548. Earlier, Sigismund had been invested as Duke of Silesia. A successful monarch and a great patron of arts, he established Polish suzerainty over Ducal Prussia (East Prussia) and incorporated the duchy of Mazovia into the Polish state, securing the nation's wealth, culture and power.
Waiting for 1535-1536 and 1509-1529 and promise pictures of his Lithuanian coins varieties, not included into any catalogue yet :)

The toning/corrosion hides the "3" in the date, so here's a shot using low-angle (grazing) lighting:
