mindcrime1988 New Member Germany 26 Posts	Posted 09/30/2012 1:54 pm I found this silver coin today but I have no idea what it may be. There is not a date that I can see and I have never found a hammered before but thought I might get lucky. Can anybody help identify this coin? Thanks!

mindcrime1988 New Member Germany 26 Posts	Posted 09/30/2012 4:40 pm I found out what this is. Philippe IV le bel "the fair" was king of France. These coins were minted during his reign from 1285-1314. Obviously this is not a United Kingdom (Great Britain) coin but it may help others in identifying their coin(s). Report this Post to the Staff

I'm not a specialist at all - but from what I saw on ebay it should be worth around 100USD. Report this Post to the Staff
