Help ID Sicilian coin [решено]

5 сообщений • просмотрено 30 раз

Hej,

I'd appreciate some help withi this coin.

On one side, I'm sure I can read “ OIVS DG”, with a cross and what probably was  a capital letter (F/R/K) and now is basically gone. I'm pretty sure it's not “CIVS”, because the letter before the I is too round and closed for a C.

 

The second side has a cross pattée with 4 globes (one is not visible) and what I can read for sure is “SICIL”, which makes me think of one of the kings of Sicily from the XIII/XIV century, but haven't been able to find an exact match.

 

Weight: 0.7 g; Diameter: 15.1 mm

Thanks for your help!

 … with a cross and what probably was  a capital letter (F/R/K) … 

is correct - it was K + like this >

with Charles being written as Karolus on coins.

Thanks, ZacUK.
So, what I interpreted as “OIVS” should be “OLVS”?

 

https://numismatica-italiana.lamoneta.it/moneta/W-CIA/29  — because here, the same coin, is reported with “(C)AROL” instead of “CAROLVS”

 That K + may just be a monogram and whatever the 

missing lettering may be then CAROLVS it could be. 

 Shame no complete coins pictures found so far.

I see, thanks for your help, a shame indeed!
