The design elements of this 14th Century Pfennig from Munster are the same as with the coin I posted up thread a few days ago, but the inscription is different and attributes this one to Bishop Potho von Potenstein.

Thx. Here is one for @era to weigh in on as to its inclusion in this thread of Pennies and Denars: a so-called silver Ducat from the Romanian City of Wallachia. It was issued under the authority of Mircea I Bassarba. Also known as Mircea The Great, he was one of the most important rulers of Wallachia.

If you believe the attribution is in error, please let me know. I was wondering if it could possibly be Erik VII of Pomerania. Furthermore, I have a similar one with Christian clearly in the legend.
