Hello tibsi,
this is no german coin.
The coat of arms belongs to westfriesland - possibly it´s a duit.

This is a frisian oord (double doit) from the low countries, dated around 1618, see:

Dear Friend,

you may consider joining the Medieval Coins Group, which is a pretty neat Yahoo Group. The experts there will surely be able to give you full identification of your coin.

Best wishes,
Burak
