Canefan Valued Member United States 109 Posts	Posted 09/23/2019 12:30 pm Has a slight bend but overall a nice coin. Got it as a gift from mother in law in Hungary. The lighting cast a yellow hue coin is silver. Report this Post to the Staff

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 09/26/2019 9:48 pm Bend is normal and that is a lovely high grade example, AU if not fully Uncirculated.

txabs Valued Member Spain 125 Posts	Posted 09/27/2019 05:37 am In Spain the roller dies coins were called "tejas" (=roof tiles). Is not just normal, the absence of bend is a bad thing ;) Lovely example of a roller die! Report this Post to the Staff

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 09/27/2019 07:35 am Although it may be made of good silver, the edge looks a little suspect to my eye. I hope I am wrong. Appears to have no sign at all of any fine scratching or nicks for a coin that is more than 350 years old. For a 3 Kreuer, should be about 20mm diameter, quite thin, and weigh somewhere around 1.5 grams. Edited by sel_69l 09/27/2019 09:03 am Report this Post to the Staff

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 09/27/2019 8:46 pm Large numbers of the "hogmouth" Kreuzer were minted and many survive in Uncirculated condition.
