This ought to be Polish, with Augustus III and "Rex Poloniarum", but I cannot find it listed in Krause. Anyone got an idea? Diameter 43 mms, weight 24,52 grams according to seller.

Thanks, maudry. Strange it is not listed in my Krause. Or should I say "mine" - I have both the 3rd and the 5th edition. It is not listed in either, at least not under Poland. Not on Numismaster.com either. Do you have any more detail? KM number, official weight, Davenport number?

This is not infact Poland. It is the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
Hope this helps,

I appreciate the information, tzarmarko. But I am still unable to find it in any of my Krauses - or Numismaster. None of these has any listing of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, and it is not listed under Lithuania.
