No, no ... it´s not a Louis the Pious denier !!
I found about 20 of them in a Viking trading place, they are very different, and thinner.

Could you tell us a bit more about the finding place, garryson ??

Is it found in Hungary ?

Maybe another type of denier? This coin also looks thin (the cross is visible on the reverse) and it may have been clipped.

Dane are you still working the Viking trading place?

Yes, right now I´m waiting for them to harvest the corn !

I agree, it might be an other kind of denier.
I have looked a lot, but couldn´t find it.
I see it as older than the Louis the Pious deniers, so it would surely be from before 800 AD.
A Merovingian or a Celtic coin might be a possibility !

Any of the findings on exhibit yet and if so where? When did you start growing corn in Denmark?

No, no in this case it is CORN like in CornFlakes and PopCorn !!!
(maize)
I knew you call it corn in the US !!
It is not harvested till some time in september, I think.
It is harvested and cut to smal pieces, put in a stack and used for feeding cows in the winter !!!

The Spanish explorers brought corn back to Europe from the American Indians.
