@UltraRant...
I found them in region of "Koroška" or "Kaërten" in German language. It is near the Austrian border.
In the past this region belongs to Austrian - Hungarian kingdom, and the "Kerutzer" was official currency in that time.
They were in use since cca. 1500 up to cca 1800.
@Wout996...
I used water and old toothbrush. For silver coins this is enough.
For copper coins I usually use olive oil.
Just put small amount of olive oil and soak the coins for few weeks (depend of the condition of material).

They do show signs of having been in the ground but I don't think it matters. You found them! They have been rescued.  |
