harrison2 Pillar of the Community Mexico 1304 Posts	Posted 06/17/2014 12:51 pm Okay, it seems that Kempton is the only coins that have ever put CAMPIDO on their coins. So, while I could not find a match for the coat of arms, the Kempton coat of arms does share similar characteristics, namely horizontal stripes on the left, diagonial strips on the right and the eagle in the middle/below. Which lead me to.... That lead me to this coin: With this information: ALTDEUTSCHE MÃœNZEN UND MEDAILLEN KEMPTEN, STADT Halbbatzen 1624. Dreigeteiltes Wappen Ã-sterreich, Burgund und Tirol I'm Vierpass. Rv. GekrÃ¶nter Doppeladler. Stempelkoppelung Nau 196/200. Bernhart - . Nau - . Haertle - . Unediert . Sehr schÃ¶n Translated by google: ALTDEUTSCHE COINS AND MEDALS KEMPTEN, CITY Halbbatzen 1624th Three Shared crest Austria, Burgundy and Tyrol, in quatrefoil. Rv. Crowned double eagle. Stamp coupling Nau 196/200. Bernhart -. Nau -. Haertle -. Unedited. very nice Report this Post to the Staff

harrison2 Pillar of the Community Mexico 1304 Posts	Posted 06/17/2014 3:51 pm Good job Petrus! NGC says... "Varieties exist." Yeah, compare these to the coat of arms image on NGC and I'd say there are some varieties! I don't own the coin...yet. So I don't have it in hand, though I am told it is silver. When I first compared the two images, I was a bit taken back thinking I was looking at a forgery. However, given the poor lighting, different wear, and difference in how the two coins were stored, (The silver-looking coin looks like a metal detector find) I suspect the brassy-looking coin is a 1625.
