Hello

I'm trying to figure out under which ruler this Meissen Groschen was struck. The only part that I can decipher is DEI GRATIA and GROSSUS MISNENSIS. Can someone help on this one?

The legend starts F DEI GRACIA, so it is a Friedrich I suppose.

Possibly a match: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=11046586

There were MANY subtypes of these groschens, but I think this one matches the trefoil above the lion, and the two shields at top above the ornate cross (in addition to only citing an "F" as ruler, and not additional rulers).
@spence is better at these than I am, so maybe he will also have a look.

And very nice coin!

Not sure that is true, but I'm glad for the kind words. @tdz, I think that you nailed the attribution.
