Not much of a hint. Carlos II, 1661-1700. Both Valencia and Catalonia coins have him on them.

By my count, we have 13 coins from Catalonia (Croat) and 22 coins from Valencia ( 1/2 Real, 1 Real and a single 2 Real that has no pic on Numista, so lets rule that one out.) Any one else.

Valencia - 10. Catalonia - 8.

2 Q's left. 1 will tell us who issued it,(Catalonia or Valencia) that pretty much cuts the number of coins in half. If it's Valencia, then we can ask if it's a 1/2 or 1 Real. If it's Catalonia, we can cut the date. I think we got him. Starting to sweat yet keith.

There are eight entries in Numista for the Catalonian croat, but only four dates that fit, so it depends on how specific we're gonna have to get if it's that one. With Valencia, I count nine possibilities if 1683 is included (and we rule out the single 2 reales ), which I'm not sure about because of how I worded my question.

We can also narrow it down by KM#, which may help.

Was this coin issued by the Kingdom of Valencia?

Well, if it's not Catalonia, then I think we're up a creek. There doesn't seem to be any point in asking if it is actually Catalonia or the denomination (there's only one in that case). I guess the date is all to narrow down...

Well, I guess that does it! If this is a Catalonian croat, then there are only two years to choose from. Who wants to go first?

I followed the loonie plan and now here we are, so I think you should go first.
