Bought these off ebay because price seemed decent, problem is I can't figure out what these are, other than the 2 mariengrochsen coins I have no clue. Thanks for the help.   |

Not sure if you can see in the photos, but the bottom left coin seems to have the twin tailed bohemian lion if that helps.

Figured out the top right: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces109033.html Date is 1630, I think. I see 1617, 1672, and 1682 on other coins; bottom left is likely the only pre-1600 coin here. UPD: bottom middle is https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces162571.html (Hessen-Kassel) and I think top middle might be from there as well. UPD 2: yup - https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces143329.html (actually dated 1657, the second 1 was a misshapen 5). UPD 3: the top left is a mariengroschen of Frederick Ulrich of Brunswick-Wolfenbuttel (similar to this but a different variant not on Numista). UPD 4: bottom right is a 2 mariengroschen of Simon Henry of Lippe-Detmold, similar to this but different legend, also not on Numista. UPD 5: sorry, can't ID the bottom left coin yet. It's probably from 15th or 16th century Brabant but the legible legend isn't helping a Numista search so I'd have to check all Brabant coins there manually and it might not even be there. UPD 6: no progress on bottom left. I could swear I'd recognize that seated saint design from somewhere. @tdziemia - this is your area, can you help here? ...oh, I see I'd been ninja-ed. Nice ID on the bottom left! I think it might be a different type, though. UPD 7: found the type at Saurma - https://saurma.info/1/1591.htmAFAICT it's not on Numista. UPD 8: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces106883.htmlEdited by january1may

Thanks for all the help guys! I was bashing my head against the wall trying to figure it all out last night. Paid 130$ after shipping do you think I overpaid? Bought it for the collection anyway but hate when I get messed up  . Thanks again! |

At 130 $, I think you did well. The 1/24 thaler and the weisspfennig are not that common I think, it would have been a quite good price for just those two.

...oh, I see I'd been ninja-ed. Nice ID on the bottom left! I think it might be a different type, though. I'm late to the game, but yes, Saint Peter on a Rhineland region coin, so I think the original ID is looking pretty good. I'll see if I can find varieties. |

I think the lower left is indeed a weispfennig of Julich-Berg, but is the ruler just before the one proposed by erafjel. I get ADOLPhVS DVX DE MOTE' for the obverse legend, so it is this one: https://www.ma-shops.com/stollhoff/...php?id=18885(which also gives an idea of the value) |
