Help identify this Coin

3 posts in this topic

I found this in a recent purchase and I’m trying to figure it out. I’ve taken some pictures with a different filter to help identify some of the details. It appears to be a dime or nickel size and weight. It’s worn as you can tell by the pictures. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.2192F00C-3E63-4565-864F-D183C791C39C.jpeg.9e9b22b8f8579142bbf871599de90eb4.jpegReverse

Pretty sure it's a Bavarian 3 kreuzer, 1766, Maximilian III Joseph. Measure it across; if it's pretty close to 19mm, I'd say the denomination is right. If more like 14mm, 1 kreuzer, but I strongly doubt this. Confident of the ruler and date, but not sure of the variety (several exist). I could be more precise but there is one data point that I can't quite match to anything I can find.
