@vstefan, you are picking up some very interesting central European medievals!. In particular, that first Regensburg coin was very unusual. Kushanshah found a reference to identify it, but I have not found another example like yours in recent auctions.

@tdziemia Thanks! :) Unfortunately Regensburg's is not mine yet. Negotiations concerning price are going on.

Looking more closely, I am not sure that your coin is Gumowski 59, which has a bishops's crozer on one side. I only see a cross on yours. We had a Gum.59 posted on page 1 this thread by @spence, as well as the corresponding photo from Gumowski: http://goccf.com/t/329294&SearchTer...ngdom,Poland

I will look in the catalog later and see if there is anything closer.
In any case, the info in BobL's link that updates the attribution of these types is very interesting.

Edit: Here is the description in Gumowski of these Bishop's denars. Your German is probably better than mine, but I will point out the footnote in the bottom that over 700 varieties have been identified(!). I am also attaching the images from Gumowski for the types that seem closest to yours. To me, 54a and 59a are both candidates with similarities to your coin.
