Unknown medieval silver

(1/1)

Mahmud G:
Hello

An unknown medieval silver coin; due to not being with me i can’t say the measures, i guess a diameter between 1-1,5 cm. Thanks for any comment.

Sincerely

Anaximander:
It is a tad crude, or I would suggest Cilician Armenia. It would be helpful to have better photos, especially of the reverse, and a proper weight in gm.

shanxi:
What about Cologne?

Not exactly this type, but similar

I believe it to be a denier of Friedrich I Barbarossa. Here's my example https://www.forumancientcoins.com/historia/coins/m1/m161.htm but there are a number of varieties on ACsearch.

Mahmud G:
Thank you very much to all of you, i think it fits shanxi’s guess. Probably this coin witnessed to 3rd crusade much more than trade relation, because it was found on that route.

Sincerely
