Coin identification (date 1691) [ Rare Coin]

[jamess]

I have been tryin to get information on for several years now! I dont know who to ask or how to find out any thing about the coin. I did visit several local coin shops but none had a book that went any farther back than 1700 and the coin I have is dated 1691.



I have scanned the front and the back of the coin if you would like to look at it. As far as i can tell it doesnt have any amount or country printed on it. Can you help me or tell me someone or somewhere that can? thank you for your time.

Have seen that, but didnt quite remember, will tell you when i get it.

[jamess]

Tell me When ever you come to know about it.

Can i have your Yahoo ID please so that i can Mail you to know the progress.

not sure either but i think it might be an ancient english coin, just a rough take on it.

looks like an english one - i think the shield maybe from lancashire or somewhere like that - but still thats quite a rare coin; congratulations on owning one!

Hi,
Can you read what the coin says? It would help tremendously in finding out its information. Also, what size is it? Dime, nickel, quarter, etc. Would it be possible to take some clearer / larger pictures?

I believe this is from the Italian states, probably Sardinia or Savoy, issued under Vittorio Amedeo II. I can't find it in Krause, but many Italian states minors aren't listed.
