​I was looking at the coat of arms and see only mainz .From the legend I uderstood that "fra" is Frankfurt. The whole my search was with the keywords "mainz" and" frankfurt" and it didnt gave me no results. Thank you very much for your knowlege!

Citeer: "PetrusAscanus"​nice coin!

​thanks

You're welcome. It wasn't so much knowledge as dumb luck. I identified the wheel as the symbol of Mainz but the full arms didn't immediately add up and the legend made no sense to me either. All I could see of the first word was EINTZ, so I searched those letters on a searchable copy of the Krause 17th century catalog. Bingo!

Current pictures are awful, but your coin is this one. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces74612.html

Does anyone have any idea what year this coin is? I can clearly see number 6 ( left side) but unable to identify any other number. Just want to add it to catalog...
Where you adding coins if it is imposible to tell the year?
Dltcoins , can you please give me a link to 17th century Krause catalog if it was online search?

The request is pending

Pictures are now added on the coin sheet, thank you PetrusAscanus

Now I have to go search the internet and learn all about this monetary union. Was it something like an early version of the Euro? That is a really neat coin!

if you google your coin, you can find a lot similar coins.
