Hi, sorry, not a lot to go on, but is anyone out there able to help identify this silver hammered coin ?

 

diameter approx 15mm.

 

many thanks

 

Looks like a Venetian soldino.

 

This type runs for about 100 years, starting wtih Andrea Contarini in 1368 and ending with Cristoforo Moro in 1471.

An expert might be able to tell you more based on slight modifications to the lion, but I don't think you can see the legends well enough to do it the easy way.

I think it may be this one, looking at the visible lettering at the edge by the lion ….

 

N#154457

Need to rotate the second picture 90 degrees clockwise …. Then the lettering matches the lettering on the coin in the link

Unfortunately they all have the word VENETI in this position.  

The other side has the doge's name, but sadly this is illegible.  If you can see any letters let us know.

I could see the “B” at 7 o’clock and the two ”straight down strokes“ at 10 o’clock ….. here’s the aligned picture - they seem to match the coin in the link above

 

Yes, this is the gothic E in VENETI that I mentioned.  

It is also visible on this one:  1 Soldino - Michele Steno - Republic of Venice – Numista

and this one (though a bit blurry): 1 Soldino - Tomaso Mocenigo (with star) - Republic of Venice – Numista

Good point … oh well, got an approximation anyway, thanks for your help
