Hello, colleagues! Please, help me!
Can you tell me what silver coin is this?!
Country? Year? Denomination? Possible value?
Many thanks!

Andi

We cannot tell you anything about a coin that we cannot see.

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.

The inscription says it is a ruler named Henry, and it looks Spanish. Will see what can be found.

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.

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.

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.
