ddjdlt Valued Member United States 54 Posts	Posted 04/25/2014 11:04 pm Hi folks, Before anyone asks, I am incapable of uploading images! Need your help. On one side of coin is the number 19 within an orb with a cross on top. The cross separates date 1749. To left of orb is 'C1', to right of orb is 'R'. The reverse side has crowned double eagle with 'two' Coats of Arms/Crests separating them. I hate it when I can't get the darn images uploaded, but, anyway, I hope someone will be able to tell me something about what I've described. Thanks... Dan Report this Post to the Staff

Austria was the biggest user of it, but I can't rule out the bajillions of other German states of the time because I don't know enough about them. There's also the chance it's a jeton or a token.

Why can't you upload images? CCF can accept images from any type of electronics - computer, tablet, cellphone, toaster.... Report this Post to the Staff
