these pieces are now referred to in Dugniolle on line http://dugniolle.com/dugniolle1902-2000.html as #1948 and #1948a

the Owl Candle side refers to the dispute in 1553 between Calvin and Servet in Geneva

I agree @tdz!

Here is a Sechsling from the German Duchy of Mecklenburg dated AD 1552:

Amazing that there is a French coin with a name resembling "a dozen croissants." I'm getting hungry just thinking about it.

For 1551 I have another Lithuanian polgrosz:

It would be a little early. I read in a Paris restaurant that the first croissants were baked in Vienna in celebration of the breaking of the siege of Vienna in 1683.
