This thread will probably soon be locked by a mod with a similar comment; you should be prepared to possibly have to open a new thread to post your pics. Report this Post to the Staff

BTW, check the thread on your offcenter coins. Edit: My guess is that it is some kind of replica of a silver coin of Enrique (Henry) II of Castille & Leon.

tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7973 Posts	Posted 03/16/2023 1:20 pm Size and weight? You also have a lot of experience, so if you think it is real, maybe I am wrong. But these things bother me: - the use of the letter U - the unusual rendering of the castle.. I think it is trying to be this coin: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces145388.html But you will be able to find even more differences than the ones I mentioned.

erafjel Pillar of the Community Sweden 2124 Posts	Posted 03/16/2023 2:28 pm I agree with tdziemia's assessment. It is a modern copy of some sort. The strange rendering of the design features, the shape of the letters (and use of 'U' on a medieval coin) all point in that direction. Report this Post to the Staff
