    My oldest silver coin with a date

    Hey diggers, Out digging at the 1794 battle site and stumbled across some coins lost in the early 1500's! My best one has the date 1509! It is a Schilling (1/2 Albus) from Cologne - Archdiocese of Philip II. It depicts St. Peter holding the key to heaven in his right hand. The key splits the date, 150 (key) 9. The coin is in great shape but was a weak strike so I'm also adding a pic from the Internet so you can get a better idea of what it looks like.
