Numisma Pillar of the Community United States 4963 Posts	Posted 03/31/2016 11:21 pm I ran a search on Numista for copper coins of 1747, but I didn't see it. The closest design was a George II pfennig with a similar GR (not SR) monogram, but that's definitely not it. Edited by Numisma 03/31/2016 11:30 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Numisma Pillar of the Community United States 4963 Posts	Posted 04/01/2016 09:26 am Looks like that's it. Interesting coin. Does the third date digit look like a 4 to anyone else? I guess it must be a 6. Report this Post to the Staff
Potsdam Valued Member Germany 303 Posts	Posted 04/02/2016 4:22 pm These 2 found together would make sense if they were found in a part of Poland that belonged two both, Prussia and Poland in different periods of time. One could also imagine that these Grosz coins were also used to pay under Prussian reign, as Prussia also minted grosz coins of copper in some years back then. The area of todays Poland is really interesting from a numismatic point of view as there have circulated coins minted from Russia, Prussia, Poland and also the Free City of Danzig.
