jakehas New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 07/05/2019 12:38 pm Hey all! So I am not very big into coins and am not very good in terms of identification of them so I am hoping you all could help. I found this coin today and have been doing extensive searching online for the same design and have had zero success in finding a replication of it. It has a decent weight to it for its' size. One side looks (to me) to be sort of a crest design with misc. smaller designs I am unable to identify. The other side has a cross along the majority of the coin and also has random designs around it. Hope you all can assist me in the identification of this cool little thing!

The crest is the coat of arms of Spain in 16th/17th centuries. The motifs between the arms of the cross are alternating castles and lions, symbols of the Spanish kingdom of Castile & Leon. Someone with more expertise will confirm whether it is a replica (most likely) or not. Edited by tdziemia 07/05/2019 1:56 pm Report this Post to the Staff
