Here are photos of the obverse and reverse of the coins. They weigh about 3.3g each, and are all roughly the same design. Silver purity about 85-90% according to XRF analysis. My guess is 1500s-1600s. There are 13 pieces total.

    They look like Prager groschen from Bohemia to me. The weight, fineness and design are the same.
