Interesting coin !

This coin is an imitation of a Duit from The City of Utrecht

Thanks for the Determinaton!

So its a contemporary forgery! I just read a short article that - whoever forged those pieces, there are a couple of Duits who had the same fate - changed some of the Letters - so that they would not be punished as hard as they would due to forgery. I suppose they were circulating as "regular" coins ???
It´s even in the KM - #A22, but has no value listed. Ist this a 1€ piece or more like a 5€?
