Some clues we need to remember or recognize. He said silver was XXX, so .999 is obvious. He said "good knight", so must have a knight on it. English letters but not language, so Latin. Help or not, I don't know. Maybe more languages than Latin.

Not .999, just used XXX so as not to give it away.

It could be .925 or less. But then you would expect ".XYZ".

Was this coin issued on any islands outside the coasts of mainland Europe?
Meaning said island could be only 5 miles from the coast of France or could be quite a distance...

It seems right from the start triggersmob has been indicating this coin wasn't "issued" anywhere.

But it's an official currency. *I think our numismatic knowledge is severely lacking..

Assuming this thing is actually listed on numista I think our only hope is to figure out the exact year and then look at every single coin to see if it has a country on it.
Is this coin dated after 1989?

Wasn't expecting such an early non-circulating coin.
