Nice find Willems! Lots of great detail on that coin despite a little verdigris. Congrats. Long cold winter continues here in northern New England. Setting my first hunt date for early April.

Nice different find. Tony, read the portion under the middle ages, altho you can see there's no hole in the center of this one.
