Any help is highly appreciated! I suspect that it might be some sort of medieval pilgrim token, but aren't sure. 14mm across Edited by semm 03/28/2022 1:33 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Compare yours with the coin of Otto II on numista: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces115394.html "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 03/28/2022 9:18 pm Maybe you are right Bob, but what about that Gordian's knot? I'm struggling to find which bishop had that. Added: ok never mind. You found it! Sorry for doubting you.

And ... Edit: Ha! scooped by my two mentors out here Edited by tdziemia 03/28/2022 9:25 pm Report this Post to the Staff
