Roma2021 Pillar of the Community Italy 1130 Posts	Posted 11/26/2022 4:14 pm Hello all, I found this coin today in a used market in Florence. It is not in my growing wheelhouse, so some attribution help would be appreciated. I take it is a 3 Groszy from 1596 with King Sigismund III. The numista listing does not show this crown style, however ucoin does. Does anyone know what the difference may be? Also, hardly a flattering profile of Sigismund!

My thought is that you should be working off of this numista page, but am looking forward to seeing if that is actually correct. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces144814.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

The Numista photos show the subtype with IF SC HR reverse, but yours is the subtype with only IF SC. It is Iger B.96.1a. (The UCoin photo is a coin from the Poznan mint, IF HR) Report this Post to the Staff
