Anyone have the full ID on this one (bottom two pictures)? Looking for all the missing inscriptions on both sides plus the normal King etc...

Cheers

We all (Hispan) came to the same conclusion, I did a little research & thought it was Philip IV but could not find a matching coin

Hispan's on the case

Very, very close, thanks. All looks the same
PHS D G HISP + REX CO ZEL - not an 'L' but a kind of 'M'
Otherwise the reverse is spot on:
PACE ET IVSTITIA

What date is it & country?

I guess it would be Spanish Netherlands? 1580s?

Here is some interesting info that I had to run a translate on so I hope it links up properly for you-

Re: Spanish Coin 16??

What we know is the text should read: PHS. D: G. HISP. Z. REX. CO. and then either ZEL or some variant. At least three common variants exist: "HE", "ZE" and "ZEL". Perhaps you have a fourth variant. (The text in full: 'Philippus Dei gratia rex Hispaniarum z Comes Zeelandia' means Philips, by God's grace King of Spain, Count of Zeeland.)
