Just caught up. The fog broke last night and feel better. I actually ate a whole sandwich in 1 sitting today. Let me pick a year. I was going to say, let's stick with KM#20.

I'm not sure asking the Swiss question would have helped.
I thought it was better to eliminate Swiss coins by size and
that eliminated the other countries along the way,


I wasn't going to burn it, we ended up needing it, and 1 more would have helped nail it down. Don't say I didn't warn us. Oz's guess would have helped, but no....she had to jump the gun.

My guess is an 1829 Batzen from the Canton of Vaud KM#20.

Some were really close, mines the 1828 dated one...

This was a whatnot purchase of course, as I didn't have a Swiss Cantons coin yet in my collection

Yes, nice old coin. Shame about the greenery.

Is your next thing a coin listed on Numista?
