I also posted this on the World coin forum too but maybe someone can help me out, this was found outside Berlin Germany about 1974. Don't let the location fool you though as the first find was a wheat penny. I am sure I have seen this design before but can't seem to jog the memory enough to track it down. Any help???? Thanks, Rick

A penny for size comparison, it is really thin, about a quarter the thickness of a dime,

    This response is from DCH over on the world coins forum here at CU.

    << <i>Double Parisis of France, early to mid 1300s. Legend on the right picture(rotate 90ccw) would ID the ruler, but I can't make out any of it. >>



    This makes this the oldest coin I have found, now if I can just get it cleaned up a little more to ID the ruler and get an exact date I will be a really happy camper!
