I am unfamiliar with that type of coin or markings if that is even what it is? Thank you all in advance for any help given.

I don't know why ... but I kept reloading every picture BUT the clearer mark picture.

From my views it appeared the countermark in question was "raised"... OR none on other pics.

After BB statement and others I had to boot pic up on a screen I can see on :)

My bad.

Hey it happens :P

I think all hammered coins look like a blob of “already been chewed gum” until further inspection of course, the one you have there does look like a coin I reckon, nice find!!!!!!!!

I don’t know why my pictures upload different from the way I took them and then look distorted when I click on them to blow them up. But anyway what about the markings on the side with a lot more corrosion? It almost appears to be a lll marking, it is tougher to see because of the flaking but it looks to be stamped rather than corrosion CD5A172A-320D-4823-8A9A-61E27DC8E350.webp F5BBE29E-4357-4ECE-9950-945DDD374625.webp
