Can you please clarify if numista lists this coin under the name of a current country.... Yes, the country is listed under another current country. I'll just give you all a hint that it is issued by an Italian city-state.

 Well, the major contestants could be Genoa, Siena or Florence. Maybe Sardinia and Sicily as well if they are counted as separate issuers under the Crown of Aragon.

 Seems to me we are down to 3 coin types: 2 from Florence and 1 from Sardinia. There are a total of 12 coins because this coin was issued over 10 "semesters" https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces320182.htmlThe way skeletonwizard8 was talking at the start of the round suggested his coin had a date range that couldn't be pinned down to a single year (never mind half a year) so it may not be this coin. Anyway, I'll halve the options. Was this coin issued in the second semester of 1404 or later?

19. Was this coin issued in the second semester of 1404 or later? No. Seems like Numista is leading you all astray  I will give one more hint: the coin was issued by the Duchy of Milan.

Quote: I will give one more hint: the coin was issued by the Duchy of Milan Ok, that's interesting. None of the maps I've been looking at show Duchy of Milan as having a Mediterranean coastline.  Or if you were referring to Italian States as a whole then it must also have Adriatic coastline.

Seems my knowledge of 15th century geography is as bad as my knowledge of 15th century coins.
