Hello!
I need some help. I didn't know under which category I need ask this question, because I can't recognize even from which region and time is this coin.
On the coin are letters "Optimo Principi DCCXLIIII". On the second side is hard to read something.

One thing is sure, it is no ancient coin. But whether it is a modern fake, a modern medal or a gebuine modern coin I have no idea. The year given is 744 but that is not the year the coin or medal was minted, I'd guess it is a maximum of 200 years old, maybe much younger.

Vielleicht etwas in diese Richtung?

Habsburg, Karl Alexander

Noch im Leben ehrten die Niederländer den geliebten Fürsten durch Errichtung seines Standbildes, welches die Aufschrift trug: „Optimo principi".

unten steht MDCCXLIIII , d.h. 1744 und passt damit in die Regierungszeit.
