Hi! Results from yesterday's hunt for the money, very happy for him this reply until I saw it in the hole.
Probably someone was wearing around the neck.

Beautiful looking coin. What country is it from?

 

[Zodiacdiverdave]

AlexanderHun, can you tell us a little about your coin find. It looks to be in fantastic shape, would I be wrong in thinking it is fro 1667.
ZDD

Hi,
Its a beautiful coin but the lettering is off to me, to crisp for a coin of that period... but still a good looking coin or charm...

 

[gerryk]

You are correct, years ago people would wear their coinage around their neck.

 

[RelicMedic]

Or sew them into their clothing

 

[AlexanderHun]

Thanks everyone, I used to be worn clothing, neck, belt as well.

How come Mackaydon has no comment on this one? I'd love to read his opinion...

Looks like the real McCoy, I can't read the coin though because the pic is kinda blurry, awesome silver tho

Because of the strange position of the hole. (Not in the exact top or bottom) it would hang strange as a pendant so... Its was definitely sewn into something, so they would hopefully not lose it... I guess it did not work so well. Haha !!
Very nice find !!
Keep @ it and HH !!
