St. Joseph Museums

The coin appears to be made of metal with signs of tarnish and wear, indicating age and historical value. On one side of the coin, a coat of arms is emblazoned, featuring a shield with various patterns and possibly emblems that might signify nobility, heritage, or origin. Surrounding the coat of arms, there is an inscription in old-style lettering that reads "OLDENB. SCHEIDE MZ," which likely refers to its minting location or issuing authority, possibly associated with the region of Oldenburg. The coin’s edges show fine detailing, suggesting it was minted with careful craftsmanship.
