This is also a 1522 L-K Hungarian Denar,King Louis II but with a slightly different eagle in the shield.

I suppose this thread is getting somewhat uninteresting with so many nearly-identical Hungarian denars  so here's some variety...  Salzburg (German? Austrian? well HRE state), 1 pfennig, 1521. (I think; I've lately started to wonder whether I read the date correctly.) Minted during the rule of Matthaus Lang von Wellenburg; the M is for Matthaus, and the flower is from his coat of arms as well. Uniface, so I didn't think to take a photo of the other side, sorry. (Not that there's much on it, naturally.) Previously featured in the original HFBCWG (back then I was entirely sure that the date was 1521 - now I'm only mostly sure).

Archbishopric of Salzburg, I think I mentioned that. And that flower is also pretty darned unmistakable, so even without the Salzburg arms themselves (which are partly off flan) it's going to be Salzburg anyway.
What I am not sure about is that I've read the last digit correctly. But really the only other thing it could be is a 2, and it's not very similar to the 2 nearby.

1520 counter token I had a very nice description of Philadelphian, but I can not find the link  Two half shields represent the marriage of Mary of Burgundy and emperor Maximilian I. Rev has the arms of Mary. The obv represents the union of the Habsburg eagle and the lion of Flanders. There is a jeton from 1477, but this one is propably a Nurnberg replica
