What are you talking about? You at least got the name of the medallion. King Ludwig. Yours is a variant. All you have to do is find out which.

The proper thing to say here is "thank you" and stop there.

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.

I'm not being rude. I'm calling what you did rude. Saying that "none of them is any good" was wrong. The obverse is identified. That's more than you had before. You said thanks, all right, but you negated it by what you added. Like I said, next time stop at "Thank you."

Hi Chris,

perhaps i should of expanded a little, my thoughts were , via the link , you get a more narrowed search to find a way of identifying it.

I doubt a nice find like that is common nor well known, or if any are on the net, so info would be limited.

However the flip side of the Kings Head shows a ship.... so i assume its commemerating either a flagship or a ship that took part in a victorious battle of sorts?
So perhaps by narrowing the years down, you might find what ships were celebrated or in winning perhaps a famous battle in that time frame, then who knows you may find more info on the coin itself.

That said, i know zip about coins, so good luck in finding out about it.
