Anyone got a 1571? If not, I have another sixpence of Good Queen Bess.

Great coins, t360! My turn now, as we have reached the 1560s.

Very interesting thaler from Cambrai!
Looks like it was struck in the name of Maximilian II, the Holy Roman Emperor.

Yes, this is correct. I omitted to say.... I will make amends to him by adding another coin bearing his name.

1568

For a collector of unusual denominations, this is about as good as it gets. This is a 27 schilling 6 pfennig from Lübeck. You can se "27.6" in the middle. It is also known as a thaler, having the appropriate size for this, but I always focus on what is written on the coin.
