Hi,

Would anyone recognise this one? Host coin is 32mm. And that seems to be a crown over a crest? on the reverse.

Thanks in advance.

Tough one ... That part of the legend in the first photo where we can see see UGELZ made me think of the Swiss canton of Zug, but I can only find coins with the city name completely spelled out (TUGIENSIS).
On the other hand, GEL can refer to Gelderland.

On the other side, it looks like JOS at 2:00-3:00.

Not much help...

Edit - not quite - perhaps a variety. Though it does seem to be Angola 1763 1/2 Macuta.

Of course TUG is likely to be part of "PORTUG..."
