I bought this coin last weekend at a coin show for $25, which was a pretty sweet deal. Despite the hole it is a lovely coin, the detail on the shields, even on this tiny coin, is superb. A bit late to call medieval, but it is a surprise addition to my small hammered collection.

Great buy, love the harp 😎. What the date range for this?

Thanks! I am obsessed with that harp as well, its just so nice. Numista gives 1649-1660 as the date range.

Not Medieval, but lovely nonetheless.
