If its a coin, Ironpatch will get it. ;D

The first pic looks like it begins with an S and ends with er. Also a u in between.

The other side has numbers.

I won't say one of a kind, but it's sure a short mint run on this one. It's a 1 Stuiver from Curacao(Netherlands Antilles) and according to Krause was only minted one year, 1822. Congrats on a rare one!

Wouldn't have got it just looking, but would have if I put in the time because I would have thought Stuiver, and do have the Krause. :thumbsup:

Great ID. I couldnt google it because I didnt see the t. I had most of the other letters. If I was smart enough I would have tried all the common letters that follow S. But I thought the next letter was a vowel. :P The closest I got was Seumer.

I cheated a bit, used the guide in Krause that lists denominations of coins and found the ones that start with an S and end in ER. I figured from the 1 that the word was the value of the coin. Then checked each country til I found the match.
