At first glance I was thinking an Otto but now if I had to guess I would go with Konrad II, but it would just be a guess. Report this Post to the Staff
tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7948 Posts	Posted 08/31/2020 9:27 pm In the first photo, I am tempted to see I O H starting at 2:00 which is sometimes IOHANNES for John. But the letter after H does not look like an A, so Second photo looks like a cross with pellets in the angles. I cannot see much in the legend, but possibly + h C V at 1:00 to 3:00?

Gincoin43 Pillar of the Community United States 1543 Posts	Posted 08/31/2020 11:13 pm I couldn't make much of the legend, If it is + h C the third character is a N it continues down into the nothing. Though I think the cross is actually the next character to the left and it is V + t _ C N. The reverse seemed similar to the legend on this one: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces106991.html Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34419 Posts	Posted 09/02/2020 06:12 am Good progress @gc and @tdz. It looks to me like there is an inner beaded circle on both sides, but the short cross/church pfennige of Mainz, Bavaria, Augsburg don't seem to have that beaded circle around the church. Unfortunately, I don't have a better suggestion (yet anyways...)

Gincoin43 Pillar of the Community United States 1543 Posts	Posted 09/02/2020 1:38 pm There seems to be something to the right of the church, an annulet or crozier maybe? Also maybe It is two crosses and then H E N for Heinrich. Side note: what are the raised things this coin and how'd it get them? Edited by Gincoin43 09/02/2020 3:19 pm Report this Post to the Staff
