ID HELP PLEASE
« on: May 23, 2007, 11:33:10 am »
Good Morning
I have just received this coin from a friend. I have no idea what it is as I collect Saxon coins. I think it is Spanish but am not really sure. Any help with ian ID  or a push in the right direction would be very gratefully received.
Thanks
Mike

I see "IACOBI REX" on the reverse. That made me think of Iacobus I of Aragon from the early 1200s but I may well be wrong.
Regards,
Martin

Hi!  I believe it is a Dinero of the County of Barcelona, Jaime I (1213 - 1276), Cayon #1832.

Obverse: BARQVINO   Reverse: IACOB REX.
Valuue about 20 Euros.
