found yesterday along with 3 coins which at first i thought were williams but now not so sure, also had 24 buttons lol and two tiny buckles. This coin is silver and i think its german, i have goggled it and found loads similer to it but nothing exact, im looking at Albert fredrichs roughly 1799 the coins are called THALERS  i think mine is a 12 thaler. Description reads ... 12 EINEN REICHS THALER IDL, the ones i have looked at all have a date on them but cant see one on mine (buying a magnifying glass today lol). really would like to put a date on this one.

Hi geoff its silver tried the spit and silverfoil, my pics aint the best as i mucked about with them trying to show more detail but ive overcooked it. I have narrowed it down and looked at loads of coins last night but nearly all have the head of the monarch and a date under thaler, there are a few that has initials but not AF and even they have the date on them, im just interested in trying to date it as i found three other coins which at first i thought were william but now im not so sure they are in very bad condition though

Alan what negative comments are you refering to?  if you mean that i think both groups are acting very childish then say so. im not getting into a debate with you over it ,if you want an argument go and find someone else to argue with i got better things to do with my time

hiya max hows things, yeah its odd thought i had three williams as well but they look different so could be another german coin. There has got to be hammered there found some pottery also and some red tile. so fingers crossed on this place
