This coin is silver. So the denomination could be
Thaler Vereinsthaler Gulden Kreuzer groschen Silbergroschen Neugroschen Grote
less likely to be
Dreiling Sechsling Schilling Pfennige

Quote: Is this silver German coin between 1850 and 1873 less than or equal to a 1 mark denomination? I will ignore this question because: 1. I don't believe this coin has been identified as German 2. The unification of Germany was in 1871 3. German mark was introduced in 1873

I forgot about the possible Switzerland and Austria options.
Switzerland silver coins are francs.
Austria used many of the German state denominations plus they used florins.

Did the issuing countries ever join the North German Confederation?

I knew the unification of Germany was in 1871 or 1872, but to my knowledge they started coining in 1873. I automatically assumed Germany here, but as Josh pointed out, Switzerland and Austria can be included.
So does the denomination have a letter G in it?

I dont know what I was thinking keith, I was wondering how you narrowed the date range so quickly.  Looks like it was an accident!

Have you settled on your question Josh or are you going to change it again before I finish answering it? Quote: Is the name of the denomination of this coin 'silbergroschen'? Yes
