Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 11/16/2021 6:11 pm I'm only certain that this was issued under the auspices of the Holy Roman Emperor Charles VII, but beyond that I'm stumped. I believe it's billon in composition. About 16mm in diameter with the weight coming in at 0.83 gram. Possibly a 1 kreuzer? Colligo ergo sum Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34511 Posts	Posted 11/16/2021 8:29 pm Normally when I see a key like that on a coin, I jump to the conclusion that it is Regensburg, but you are right with that attribution of Bremen @big. Well done! Now I just have to remember 1 key = Bremen, 2 keys = Regensburg.
