wilhelm von Osterreich New Member United States 19 Posts	Posted 04/13/2013 8:03 pm This is possibley a coin from one of the Crusader states (Antoch,Jerusilum,Create) or from Bazantum.Another possibility is Eastern Europe such as Hungrey(magar) or Austria. Report this Post to the Staff
philadelphian Pillar of the Community United States 3253 Posts	Posted 04/13/2013 10:37 pm No, this is definitely a Hungarian denar, of the MadonnenmÃ¼nze type, from the period after 1526, when the Kingdom of Hungary was held by the Holy Roman Emperors, as can be seen in the legend to the right of the shield: G RO, for (Dei) Gratia Romanorum (Imperator). I think Matthias II perhaps more likely than Ferdinand II, if we could only make out the few characters above the shield. Report this Post to the Staff
