prettycoinshun New Member Hungary 3 Posts	Posted 05/24/2022 4:06 pm Hello community! A friend gave me this (attached) coin, and I want to know what it exactly is. He told me it was used around 11-13th century Carinthia, Austria, most likely around 1250. Supposedly it is a Silver Friesacher Pfennig, however when googling around for it, not a single exact match comes up. Can you please tell me what this coin is, when it was issued (year), and optionally who it was used by/issued by? Would love to see some EXACT copies from others. ( Otherwise I will think this is the coolest coin on the planet, because it is unique.) Thank you Report this Post to the Staff

JohnConduitt Valued Member United Kingdom 461 Posts	Posted 05/26/2022 1:59 pm I wouldn't be the right person to ask but it's very difficult to see what's on it, because of the photos and the patchy patina. Could you get closer pics and crop them (so the coin fills the photo)? The top picture seems to have an arrangement of 4 crosses patonce (maybe) but I can't work out what's on the other side at all. Is there any lettering? Anyway, this seems to be like the reverse (the first image): Austria. Bernhard Duke of Carinthia (1202-1256). AR Friesacher Pfennig, St. Veit mint, 1202-1256. CNA I.

Spence Moderator United States 23748 Posts	Posted 05/27/2022 8:05 pm @pret, first welcome to CCF. Second, can you please post some nicer images of this coin? We need well-lit, in focus, and cropped please. Thx. This will help to confirm if @john is correct (I suspect he is).

It is totally unique, have not seen any similar before. Please find attached the best pictures I could take with my phone. Also attached a high effort, low quality Paint highlight of what I see on the coin, I hope it helps you see it too. Thank you for your help Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Pillar of the Community United States 9203 Posts	Posted 06/22/2022 5:03 pm you may want to give it a good soak in pure acetone (not fingernail polish) to see if some of that gunk will come off.
