Old Hungarian Coin
« on: July 28, 2007, 08:50:40 am »
I normally collect ancient Roman coins but got this coin with a lot of uncleaned ones.  From the Internet it is apparently Hungarian with the Madonna, PATRO UNGA and the date ??17 on one side and a coat of arms on the other.  Can any one tell me more about this one?  Thanks.
