Bacchus2 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2908 Posts	Posted 07/24/2021 08:49 am Hi, I'm not sure of this one - possibly Wismar? Obverse legend seems to be MONE.ND.GREWISMOL H.V, above crowned Lion (though looks like a pig) reverse 7, 6 wither side Would anyone have a reference?

erafjel Pillar of the Community Sweden 2124 Posts	Posted 07/24/2021 09:07 am It must be this one: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces168755.html Mecklenburg, 1 Sechsling, Ulrich III, 1556. The "pig" is supposed to be a young bull (a steer according to Numista, a new word for me ... ) Edited by erafjel 07/24/2021 09:08 am Report this Post to the Staff

Bacchus2 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2908 Posts	Posted 07/24/2021 09:32 am Brilliant - thanks very much. It's actually quite a nice coin in-hand.

tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7981 Posts	Posted 07/24/2021 10:57 am Neat coin! Yes, that crowned cow also appears on Wismar coins (where he is sometimes sticking his tongue out). I assume the mint is Grevesmuhlen. It seems I learn every day about another small place like this that used to be of enough importance to mint coins.
