We took it to a local coin dealer and he found the coin and dish to be solid silver. I found the same design on this website but it was plated. The dealer offered $100 for silver weight but knew little about it. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

There is a place in Chicago that can authenticate it, but I just haven't had the time to get there. If the coin is truly a 1484 half guildiner (it looks like one), then it must be worth quite a bit. Hope you see this and reply. Report this Post to the Staff
austrokiwi Pillar of the Community 2087 Posts	Posted 09/20/2013 2:51 pm Looking at the arms(shields) on the reverse I suspect the coin is a replika.....the lines are just too straight and well formed ie they are too sharp for a coin of that age and era. However there is one way of checking has the dish got any hallmarks on it? Report this Post to the Staff
