Back to the uniface coins for me. Here is a Pfennig from the Austrian state of Steiermark dated AD 1527:

@giljan, on the second Krakow groschen, I agree the last digit of the date makes it difficult. This type only ran from 1526-1529, and other features of the coin make 1526 impossible. I could not find one like yours in the WCN database, so  I have been unsuccesful in several recent bids to get a 1526 coin from Poland/Lithuania, but recently picked up this Swidnica (Silesia) 1/2 groschen for about 1/10 the price of others I had tried for. Variant with retrograde N.

More "all in the family" connections for 1526... Louis (Lajos) II of Hungary, under whose authority the Hungary denars AND the Schweidnitz 1/2 groschen of 1526 were issued, was of the Lithuanian-Polish Jagiello dynasty. He was the nephew of Sigismund I of Poland (@giedriuis 1526 coin), and died in battle against the Ottoman empire at the age of 20, the year these coins were issued, 1526.
