Man, a harder round here ...

So is the issuer one of these:

Novgorod, Moscow, Teutonic knights, Aquitaine, HRE, Church States, Ottoman Empire, Naples, Aragon, Castile, or Granada?

5. Does not have English lettering

I am assuming that would also excluded the Latin alphabet.

Was the coin issued by the Eastern Roman Empire (Byzantine)?

By "English lettering" I took that as being some form of English or old English. The coin has Latin text and is not from the Byzantine Empire. I'll give you all that for free to make up for my mistake.

Thought I could narrow it down further..There were still quite a lot of medieval coins with Latin inscription.

Can you please clarify if numista lists this coin under the name of a current country....

e.g. Kingdom of Naples is listed under Italy
