Thx @petrus! I'll be posting a similar coin tomorrow, but am really looking forward to seeing what else others have.

Nice coin. Quote: At first glance it looks like 1706 Certainly looks like it. The comment on being struck much later is interesting.

This one isn't very photogenic, but the only one I have from 1705.

Variety of designs on those German States (and I'll throw in Salzburg) is a never ending source of fascination!
Tasseled clerical hats, St. Peter with his keys, and a wildman.
And I think we'll see these well back into the 17th century
