Hello can anyone here ID this silver coin (could be a medal, i don't know-due to poor lighting the photo may not look like a silver coin but it is) Weighs 44g. even with hole. Crown size.
Value also needed and value needed (auction results) for an 1660 Sweden 1 riksdaler death of Karl X - AU/UNC. Crown size.
Thanks in advance!

I don't pay for acsearch so I'm unsure of a value.
Not bad for a "what's this?" post!

It is a riksdaler- weighs 25.6g. And quite a bit larger than a Morgan dollar!
They look alike. The 2/3 riksdaler weighs about 16-17g.
OK, yeah... scanning quickly kept seeing that design as the 2/3 riksdaler. Found (3) results for the full 1660 riksdaler... There's a good bit of variance in weight and die style; your piece, though on the light end and somewhat impaired surfaces, definitely looks original.
Also quite the variance in price (do Swedes not know about NumisBids/German auctions??!):

That Petr I piece is obviously much scarcer than the later 18th century Russian medallions.
