Peckris Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 It was part of an auction lot that was otherwise Ancient Greek and Roman, but the ticket said this could be a "Templars" coin from the Crusades period.It's silver, very thin, and ever so slightly smaller than a 5p.I'll have to post the reverse separate due to the upload limitations.

Peckris Posted September 1, 2009 Author Posted September 1, 2009 The reverse could feature a castle plan, as viewed from above Quote
Peter Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 (edited) I've got a few coins like this.The cross indicates C1200 Valance French denier but it could be feudal French (Geoffrei) into the next century.I'm no expert (yet) as the reading information is not widley available in English.I've had some success with assistance on ID at Coinpeople.com Edited September 1, 2009 by Peter Quote
