Hi

I've examined this nice looking silver coin from 1622 and found out that it's a Duchy of Saxe-Weimar - 3 pfennigs = 1 dreier.

Here is a ref for Numista - https://en.numista.com/90487
I still have a problem though as my coin is from 1622 (GA) and I haven't found the same date reference. Above link shows 1623 (WA) date only.

Maybe it's just a missing date on the Numista site but I would like to be ensure so I'd appreciate an assistance from more experienced users :)

The Numista coin is not the right attribution (the arms are differemt).

Here is your coin: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=7867924

Not sure why there is not a "Saxe-Middle-Weimar" section in Numista (Germany is not my strong point)

I thought that Numista ref is the correct one, thank You for correcting me on that and giving the proper ref :)

@NumiFan, looking more closely at the (poor) photos in Numista, I might be wrong. That coin does have the same arms (shields) as yours. The KM description does not mention the letters WEI MAR for this type, and lists only 1623 WA: https://numismaster.com/MC_184699

However, there is a KM# 81 which DOES have the letters WEI MAR in the description, though it too only lists a 1623 GA: https://numismaster.com/MC_184700

Both of these types are listed in KM as beng made of copper, and yours does not look like copper. But the Numista listing has it as silver, so maybe KM is wrong.

German sellers on MA-Shops call this type as Saxe-Alt-Weimar:
