"Double headed eagle" might be found of XVII century swiss canton coinage: Chur, Uri, Zurich, etc...

I'm 99% sure that it's not from the Swiss cantons although it does look similar. The coat of arms with rampant lions reminds me of Bavaria (but it's not). Sorry I don't know where to focus next. I'm sure that someone collects these and will know exactly where it's from. Just have to wait.
Thank you both for your response so far.
Add. Info.: Thin silver coin, diameter: 30 mm weight: 4.55 g
best regards
It's pretty worn and many letters are unreadable but the legend might be MATTH I D G ROM IMP SEM AVG so this coin could be related to Matthias I so you can extend your search to Dutch republic.
After review of all Holy Roman Empire coat of arms, I give up the ghost :snif:
but I'll follow this riddle

The closest coin I found is:
Taler - XVI century - Aachen

Obv:
SEMP AVG
eagle orb on breast

Rev:
AQVISGRANI


Aqvisgrani = Aachen

Unfortunately, I didn't find any similar coin in the reference site of Aachen coins ...

Bravo muskathund :8D

If it is not on the internet, it does not exist.

Thank you all for your effort and contributions. And of cause special thanks to muskathund who solved the puzzle. I am very impressed, as I my selves couldn’t find a workable trace to follow (I have in vain tried to seek out the coat of arms).
As a matter of fact I know (almost) nothing about coins or numismatics. I am an amateur archeologist, and occasionally I find old coins in relation to an excavation that can help define the time period for a specific event. I this case the period 1614-19 fits nicely into the picture.
Best regards
