Hello Otakar ,

Thanks again for your help.
Are you sure that this is a Pfennig from Osnabrück because of the differenses we see on the site with the Osnabrücker Rad ?? It look on our coin a circel with 5 little circels.

Hi Pinpoint,

you are right, that's not the typical wheel of Osnabrück.
I think, it is a Pfennig from Grafschaft Ravensberg, probably Otto III. (1249-1306).
From Ravensberg a coin (Stange 24) is known which shows a wheel with ringlets instead of spokes. It was sold in the Westfalia collection of Karl Kennepohl (Künker Auktion Nr.92/93 2004, Lot No.3654).

Greetings,
Peter
