JonS.7070 Valued Member United States 295 Posts	Posted 09/08/2008 01:52 am Here is another one that I cant seem to locate info on. It is the size of a quarter but very very thin like a worn down AG-3 Barber dime.

Usually there is only one letter for a mintmark on Austrian coins. There are a few (very few) Austrian-Hungarian mint marks with more than one letter, e.g. Kremnica had KB for a while. In this case, however, the "CA" could be the initials of the mintmaster and the Wardein (guardian?) in Vienna, Johann von Cronberg and Franz Aicherau.
