Still traveling Europe. Went out today to a dirt road across the lake from an old town and managed few keepers.

2 hammered coins. 1671 Solidus and silver 1654 Livonia Solidus.

Also a German 1874 Pfennig and silver 1823 1/2 Groschen.

Also pulled this Square (coin??) it has what appears a Knight with sword and shield and letter "G", obverse has some floral/flame pattern with letters "RVI", any help with id would be appreciated, it's approx 19mm at its widest and 2mm thick:

The square coin might be medieval from city of Antwerp.
 

Awesome digs Bart. I sure wish I could be swinging with you. Looking forward to your next post Bro.
 

Those are some awesome old coins. To think that here in the midwest I feel good about finding a coin from the 1800's.
 

Agreed with David its an Antwerp Coin Weight (Square one). Should be easy to date it with the initials RVI.
