Here is a uniface Pfennig from the German Archbishopric of Mainz dated (15)67 AD. I think that the "D" is for Daniel Brendel von Hamburg. It is attributed as Saurma 2526.

Quote: I think we will continue to see that Lithuanian rider pretty often over the next few decades. True, but I feel like we are getting really strong participation this round. I just hope you guys are all still sticking around when we hit the 15th Century this Summer... Here is my Groschen from the German Electorate of Saxony-Albertine dated (15)66 AD. It is attributed as Saurma 4516 and Kohl 155 (in addition to being listed in Krause).

This is my first go around on these kinds of threads, and I am really enjoying learning, and trying to discern patterns.
For example, we are only seeing large silver from Low Countries, but small coins from German principalities, Poland-Lithuania and Hungary. Does this reflect which types bear dates in the 1500s? Or just which types the regulars here collect?

Quote: Or just which types the regulars here collect? My collecting focus has been on (relatively) reasonably-priced coins and the coins that I post are much more likely to be Pfennigs or Groschen rather than Thalers. By way of example, here is a denar from Jungary dated 1565 AD that weighs only 0.4 g. It is attributed as Huszar 992.
