Can anyone help with a KM# on this? Kreuzer 1643?
Struggling to find exact match...
Augsburg
The pine cone is the symbol of the city
Also above it is AVG lettering

On the eagle is 1/2 numbers, like this ...
https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces39582.html
where 1/2 Batzen = 2 Kreuzer
though that page does not have 1643 date. But is similar,
except that is Ferdinand II and yours is Ferdinand III.

Hi,
Augsburg coin, not yet in Numista catalog.

Here is the World coin reference:

​Thank you, yes I found this, but the date appears to be 1643. You think it is still the same coin, although the years don't matchup?

​Ah super duper, thank you!!
What kind of state would you rate this coin? Fine (F)?
Seems like rough cleaning has been done. Sorry for the poor photos, its from an online add.
I already amended/added to my reply, and another member found a coin which
is not on here currently, so maybe that is it. :)

​It says copper here, the seller of the coin claims it's silver (and it looks like silver, doesn;t it?)....are the different variations?
