Edward D:
Thank you,Quadrans. The one you have is really nice and is higher grade silver. I am wondering if with the weaker silver and the missing "I" in SIGIMUNDI if it could be a contemporary counterfeit. Also,the "U" does not look the same.

quadrans:
Hi Edwards,

The missing letter or letters are frequent in this era, mostly at the end of the legends.
The letters are good shaped, only the low silver content is not really useful at this denars.

Regards

 Joe
