Spence Moderator United States 34491 Posts	Posted 05/19/2022 09:40 am @mais, that is a great little billon coin you have there. It looks to me like it is a Dinheiro issued by Alfonso II of Portugal somewhere in the mid-13th Century AD. Here is a numista link to one such example for comparison: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces106344.html "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff

bennycunha97 Valued Member Portugal 51 Posts	Posted 05/28/2022 10:34 am I may be trying too hard to interpret the messed up parts of the legend but I seem to see a "D" on the top of the first pic. The legend would then readl "D REX PORT" meaning it would be from Dinis I (12t9-1325). But as I said, the legend is a bit messed up so I might be imagining things. But it does seem more like a D than an A. Benny Report this Post to the Staff
