Hello All,

I'm New to the forum, but have been collecting and metal detecting for years.

I recently dug this hammered silver,

Have been told it is an undated issue of King Johanes IV 1640-1656,

Have only been able to find a few similar examples online, all have a 'SOO' countermark this one lacks.

Any information on the age and rarity of this coin would be much appreciated!
