Really nice coin @Hondo, and from a pretty obscure place!

I've got one more Lithuanian half groat for 1518 before I mix it up tomorrow. We are now in the transition back to a "gothic" script in this part of the world.

I did remember to take photos of the blank side this time! You can kind of see the incuse impression of some parts of the non-blank side - most prominently the last two digits of the date (at 7h).
