On the other side I think it says "LEOP D.G. and has some other letters. It's a really nice looking coin IMHO and I bought it inexpensively just to have an old coin. I'm mostly a stacker of modern bullion, Morgan and Peace dollars and 90% US silver. Thanks, really_bigair Identified - moved to World Coins forum - Sap Report this Post to the Staff

really_bigair New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 09/27/2010 9:15 pm DCH, Thank you! Do you think the coin was minted in 1682 (or possibly 1687) or do you think it is commemorating the date 1687 which I've been told was significant in the city's history? Report this Post to the Staff
