I bought this coin along with 5 others with I have made separate threads for. They were advertised as Old French Coins. Can anyone tell me what date this coin was made, what the denomination of the coin is, the catalogue number if it has one and what value does it have.

Its weight is: 10.9g
Its Diameter is: 29mm

Thanks

Looks like a French sol coin. If BB stands below is a mintmark, than it may mean minted in the city Lille. However, I may be wrong. There are experts on French coins here.

It is a 12 Denier dated 1792 Strasbourg mint.
Quite frankly this coin and your other ones are in such poor condition I hope you didn't pay more than £5 for the lot.
