Spain, Portugal, France and Germany is all I see. With 3 Q's left, we can't burn 2 to find the country this late. My gut says Spain......what y'all feeling.

Breaking news clue! This just in! It is reported that my coin is not from Spain, Portugal, France, or Germany!

Oh yeah, forgot to mention Numista does not mention a weight, but my coin weighs more than 1.3 grams

Not from Germany as such, but is this coin from a German state?

There are only 19 precious metal circulation coins issued from 1740-1800 with diameter 15-17.49mm that numista doesn't list weight for:

15 from Germany
1 from Canada
1 from France
1 from India
1 from Polish-Lithuanian commonwealth

(Assuming numista lists diameter for this coin)

So unless mrwhatisit has been telling porkies it's got to be the last one on that list

So I guess 1753 Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth Pottorak koronny - August III
