Quote: I am guessing the 1856 A 2½ Silber Groschen - Friedrich Wilhelm IV, KM #463. That guess is also incorrect.

Oh, that's where I got mixed up. I was thinking in my mind that the diameter of this coin was between 18 and 20mm. I was thinking I had a 1 in 5 chance.
Oh well, someone's bound to get it now anyhow.

Quote: Was this silbergroschen minted in Prussia? Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't all coins with an A mint mark minted in Berlin and therefore Prussia?

Lucky for you guys this coin was also issued in Prussia. Quote: Well, my guess is a 1852 2-1/2 Silber Groschen from Frederick Wilhem IV... And the winner is mrwhatisit    Great effort on tracking down a German coin. Proves it can be done.

Oh dear, it was just a matter of probability; one of us was going to get it sooner or later  ....... Lets see, which coin I will choose.... If hints can be given... Size matters is the hint on the coin I have... (I might be a tad bit more sporadic on my responses due to what I do, but I will try my best  ) On that, I have a coin  ...

Congrats mrwhatisit.
Now if size matters, let's start there.
Is this coin less than 20mm in diameter?
