Heavily damaged silver coin

Hi folks,

Well, first of all, please forgive me for asking my question in English but I'm French and unfortunately I've never had the opportunity to learn German.

I'm currently detecting in the south of Belgium but, few years ago I used to play with my XP Deus in Liège - Lüttich, 20km away from the German border.

I once found found the relic of a silver coin on which I managed to read "fürst" (so I guessed it was German) between to circles of dots. It weighs 0,95g. Unfortunately I wasn't able to gather more informations about this coin.

I recently found it back in my drawer and, even if it's in a really poor state, I guess that maybe you will be able to help me identify it.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Jean

Hello Jean!

I am not a specialist for old coins but when i saw your posting few minutes ago i had the idea that "Fürst" could be a part of the words "Fürstentum Liechtenstein". So i googled with "antike silbermünze fürstentum liechtenstein". Did not find your coin but may be you could try too and take more time for a search than i did :-)

Regards
Micha

Hi Micha and thanks for your help.
I tried to follow your very good idea but unfortunately I was not able to find a match, none of the silver coin from Liechtenstein I have found have those 2 lines of dots.

Or maybe am I misreading, maybe it is not "fürst" ?

Fürst is right. Try another google research with "Silbermünze fürst*". I just did so and found one with 2 lines of dots, here:

Good idea, I may have more luck with the German word Silbermünze (silver coin, if I understand).

So far, nothing interesting on Google Image Search. I have also tried with Austrian Netherlands coins (Belgium for a century or so was Austrian) but nothing here neither...

And could it be 2 separate words, like "...für st..." ?

No, i am quite sure that this is only one word. And because Fürst is a german word i think you have better chances to find it when searching for Silbermünze and not silver coin. I also searched a few more minutes for it but with no result. Good luck and may be someone else here has another idea :-)
