Tomten Valued Member Sweden 159 Posts	Posted 01/04/2011 2:56 pm Hello there! Posting 2 coins I need help ID:ing in 2 seperate topics to keep filesizes acceptable but with good quality. :) Help me ID! I have a feeling this is a Swedish coin, but I'm unable to find it in my catalog. Might be Norwegian or Danish I suppose. Actually, the sheep with flag, is on our flags on my island in Sweden, however I didn't find a match for the medieval coins from here and with this one. Reminds me of Czechoslovakia, Czech Republic.. But not sure, couldn't find it in the Instant Identifier in my Krause. Thanks for any help! Edited by Tomten 01/04/2011 2:57 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Litotes Pillar of the Community Norway 510 Posts	Posted 01/04/2011 4:10 pm I am not certain here, but sheep with a flag is a motiv that has been used in Nuremberg, a German State. So I think both coins are German. Report this Post to the Staff

Tomten Valued Member Sweden 159 Posts	Posted 01/05/2011 05:37 am DCH, The first coin is from Wisby, which means it really was my island! I totally forgot my history... The island I live on was Danish for a while.. That's why I didn't find anything to match this coin with in my Swedish catalog. Thanks a lot. I'll keep this one for sure! A local coin from ~1536! Could be 1535, hard to tell. Didn't find any Stolberg-Ortenberg in my 1600-Krause, if the coin should be from 1614.. However I've been at medievalcoinage before and I trust it. Thanks a lot!
