Seems double die match ?

Coin looks good to me, Mario, but do you have better photo and weight ?

Hi Pekka K, hi Ben!

incredible! In such a short time to find it.... :o

Here I tried to take a better pic. Weight is 5.35g...

I noted a failure in the die (reverse) under the S in VOTIS that both coins have.... Obverse seems to also fit...

It'd be nice to hear confirmation from someone else, but it seems good to me.

Do you have any more nice coins to show us ?  :)

Hi Ben!

That is all I have  - have been in the family for over 70 years, now they passed to me.....

So thanks for the help again to both of you with Pekka K!
