This is an interesting coin I picked up the other day, tentatively identified as a Livonia Skilling. Given the "57" on one side, perhaps it's dated 1657?
Interesting coin! And interesting off-center strike!
This is Livonia 1 solidus (shilling, silins)KM#4, indeed struck in 1657. It was struck during the rule of the Swedish king Carl X Gustavus (hence the CG-monogram).
Thanks Bart and EgCollector! I also wonder if the off-center strike caused the flan to hit something that folded the edge slightly? The position is interesting.
