I've had this coin since 2000, and had labelled it as coming from 1744 AD. Now that I have taken pics of it and been able to take a good look at that last digit in the date, I'm not convinced about the date. What do you think about this Heller from the German City State of Hesse-Cassel? 1744? 1746? 1742?
