vince1977 Pillar of the Community Netherlands 847 Posts	Posted 07/01/2014 4:05 pm Just by luck I found this one: Appears to be an Solidus from Livonie. Probably overstruck by another type. This one below is from the Swedish occupation alround 1660. http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces31470.html Obverse Crowned CR monogram in inner circle Lettering: CAROLVS D.G. REX Reverse Lettering: SOLIDVS CIVI RIG Report this Post to the Staff

vince1977 Pillar of the Community Netherlands 847 Posts	Posted 07/03/2014 07:01 am DO you perhaps know on which coin it is overstruck? Just an older type of the same country? Report this Post to the Staff
HoosierDaddy Pillar of the Community United States 1164 Posts	Posted 07/03/2014 08:23 am I think the coins were stuck on a sheet and then punched out. So what you are seeing is part of another of the same coin. I have perfect centered ones and ones that are way off. These coins are so thin. Maybe an expert in 1600's billon coinage could help.
