micha Valued Member Cyprus 385 Posts	Posted 01/08/2021 12:32 pm Hello, I'm trying to identify some of my coins and any idea is very welcome. Thank you for your help! 1. Diameter 12.7mm, Weight 0.3gr must be from Hungary but I am not sure, bronze or copper Crown / Double cross (not sure if is upside down, the letters are confusing) 2. Diameter 15.8mm, Weight 0.5gr from Hungary?, date 1558, Madonna Child / Shield silver or billon Report this Post to the Staff

It would be attributed as Frynas H.27.14 and Huszar #586. These are pretty common, but it should be made from at least a little bit of silver (i.e. billon). Here are images of my example: Your other coin is a Hungarian Denar.
