Bacchus2 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2875 Posts	Posted 01/05/2023 08:18 am Hi, I have a question about this Trier 1661 4 Pfennig. The numista reference below cites the obverse legend as MONE NO ARG E CONFLV (date en chiffre romain) https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces45258.html However the attached example omits the first M of the date. Would anyone know if this is a common variation? * Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. * My Papal States coin collection: https://diadumenian.com/Papal%20Sta...0States.html Medieval coins collection: https://diadumenian.com/Congressofp...0Europe.html Indian Rupee Collection: https://diadumenian.com/Congressofp...0Rupees.html Minor world Silver: https://diadumenian.com/Congressofp...20coins.html Report this Post to the Staff

Hard to know if it was done "deliberately," when the die cutter reached the space for the year and "Oh d*rn! Eh, I'll skip the M, it's redundant ..." or if it was an oversight. I see the "PRVM" - last word on the obverse - has also been truncated both on your coin and the NGC coin. Report this Post to the Staff
Bacchus2 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2875 Posts	Posted 01/05/2023 09:43 am Thanks - I forgot to check NGC but yes, likely it was thought redundant if space was an issue. Interesting that the same "practice" happened over multiple years.
