Idntyification of the mint 2
« on: January 19, 2023, 05:15:59 pm »
Hi the mint mark is faintly visible but it is possible to read SNT or SMT. Could someone help me identify the mints?

Thank you for your help

Can you post the other side of your coin and its size (and weight)?

It is definitely SMT, indicating Thessaloniki mint.  It should be followed by a S but that edge is a bit messed up.

I think I see an A in the left field so it is likely the 5th issue.  If that is actually an M it is the 6th issue and there was another letter after the S in the original mint mark.
