    It's a thaler, issued in Mansfeld, Germany, by Volrat VI, Wolfgang III von Borstädt,and Johann Georg II von Eisleben. 1626. The obverse depicts St. George riding on horseback, spearing a dragon. The obverse legend reads: VOLRAT. WOLFG. ET. IOHA: GEORG. PATR. The obverse depicts a coat of arms. The obverse legend reads: COM. ET. DOM. IN. MANSF. NO. DO. IN. H., helmeted arms.

    That's as much as I could find on the Web. I hope someone with the reference books can look it up for you.

    I think it's either a 1 or a 1/2 Thaler, depending on weight.
