Medieval Pillar of the Community 3772 Posts	Posted 11/05/2014 11:26 pm Had this group of small silver coins (~0.65g and ~13mm each) for years and while I could clearly make out that they had to be from the Archbishopric of Trier (the ancient Treveri) did not have access to attribution material. A few days ago I found http://www.numismatas.com/Forum/Pdf...%20Trier.pdf and yes, there they are on page 21. Pfennig from Archbishop Arnold von Isenburg (1242-1259) The Pfennig in the German States was like the English Penny derived from the Denar, Denaro or similar names. Report this Post to the Staff

Medieval Pillar of the Community 3772 Posts	Posted 11/06/2014 12:42 am So from the German Empire I assume with the currency reform in 1875. Plenty earlier ones available from the various German states. But don't let me forget to say a welcome - haven't seen you on this forum before. Hope you get tempted more often into this forum.
