Hello, could anyone help me with the ID of this coin? I can't find anything online.

Im am able to discern the following:
"Pro lege et grege 1620"
"Monet Argen" Honstein(?)
It weighs 2.5g

Thank you!

@noc, you've got the inscriptions pretty close. Looks to me like you have a minor silver from the German County of Hohnstein. You didn't mention the diameter of your coin, but it seems similar to this one in numista:
