Hi all, this might be a tough one, but shining a light on the coin from the side, I can make out what u believe to be the following letters;

'COVENTAV'
'H ? ? ? E
'P L ? ? ?'
'16?9'

I have two pics showing the original and what I believe to be the letters and numbers. Any idea what this could be?

I have been trying to identify this coin or a while now, its bugging me so I need your help and expertise! sorry for the state of the coin.

1) This is a bendy coin, would it be made out of tin?
Observe: can only make out 'alein'
Reserve: can only make out 'enricv' ('henricvs' I am guessing).

I know alot if the coins were silver, but would anything be made out of a bendy material like tin in that time?

Hi, I would like you opinion on this coin. To me looks like a philip ii 8 reales coin. Do you think its a fake? its 38mm diameter and 18.6 grams in weight. this seems too light in weight (should be 27 grams?) but the right size. Its not magnetic either. What do you think? thank you

I have been trying to identify these 4 coins or a while now, its bugging me so I need your help and expertise! sorry for the state of the coins.

1) This is a bendy coin, would it be made out of tin?
Observe: can only make out 'alein'
Reserve: can only make out 'enricv' (King Henry, 'henricvs' I am guessing).





2) Kings head can be seen with possible writing - 'imp hisp rex 15? cad..'. I am thinking a Charles V Spanish Netherlands Korte copper coin , would this seem right?





3)Seems to be a lion on this coin, with 'OR' and 'm' on the right hand side.





4) Possibly a double tournois from France as 2 or 3 Fleur de lis on back.

Thank you I have found it now - KM# 590, yes I would agree it would be SE 1791 (1869) due to the date with the same character at the beginning and end of the date
