This coin is similar to the 1/6 Thaler of Mecklenburg-Güstrow, but not exact of course, and I cannot find an exact match in numista, Krause, or by searching the inscription.

Also, I will get it entered in Numista so that the next collector who searches there will find it!) Edited by tdziemia 10/27/2022 10:07 am Report this Post to the Staff
