@pepactonius, WOW on the Ottingen coin. I wish I had one so sharp. And I hadn't realized the coat of arms has a dog on it. Not quite so common as lions, eagles or even bears in medieval heraldry. Likewise, a couple of great Lithuanian half groats today! (I will just be watching until 1513).

I'm taking a couple day break from Lithuania. Here is a uniface Pfennig from the Austrian State of Kärnten dated 1517 AD. It is attributed as Saurma 763.

Back to Lithuania for me. Here is a Half Groschen dated 1515 AD. Based on the pattern of annulets, this looks like a Huletski 44J (Kopicki 3141).

Spence IMHO this is unpublished one with the dot on reverse below the eagle. It can be as 43E2 in new issues of the book. My coin:

Ah ok thanks for the more specific attribution @giedrius. I hadn't even noticed that dot under the eagle's wing on our coins.
