coinsnpaper Valued Member Canada 480 Posts	Posted 08/05/2010 07:00 am I am going to guess Byzantine Scyphate- cup shaped coin. Image of Christ and King inside, flowers or something on the other side. Possibly later than Byzantine, possibly tourist trade issue, It is far outside my areas of knowledge. Report this Post to the Staff

This type of coin was struck in the Holy Roman Empire (Germany) during the 1100 & 1200. Edited by echizento 08/05/2010 08:44 am Report this Post to the Staff

There's a bit of info here: http://www.moneymuseum.com/moneymus...=en&id=61191 Other countries issued bracteate coins too including Denmark, Switzerland, and bits of what is now Austria, and Hungary.
