Whats a 1/2 Stuber?

PutTogether

I found this coin in a box of coins given to me by my grandfather. I have no idea what it is. It's an old copper coin and has turned quite dark over the years. The obverse (or maybe reverse?)

1/2
STUBER
1784

with a couple of star like designs above the word stuber

the other side has this inscription written around the rim
- UNTAGULICHUN - BERGISCHELAND
with some kind of design ive never seen before in the center.

(could be typos)

What the hell is this?

Does it look similar to this:

PutTogether

it looks something like that, but there is no inscription around the side that says 1/2 stuber, the inscription is around the other side (the one with the nifty design)

thats it, that second picture is the one. but its 1/2 not 1/4........is it worth anything at all?

PutTogether

sumnom

it's worth at least a half stuber.
