If my research is correct, we are down to six possibilities*: Denmark Finland Norway Montenegro Luxembourg Cyprus *pending the answer to Keith's question. That should cut it in half.  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

Perhaps it is a micro-country:
Andorra
Liechtenstein
Luxembourg
Monaco
San Marino
Or one of the Baltics:
Estonia
Latvia
Lithuania

So that leaves Cyprus and Montenegro. There are very few coins that fit our parameters from either country.
6 questions remain. We are golden. Make that 5 questions left.
So following sprues list...
Was this coin issued by Montenegro?
