I am not sure if I maybe just tell rubbish, but cause of the fact that nobody has answered so far, I would just like to make a guess:
I see a lion on a shield in a trefoil. This was used also in Meissen. Maybe the M above the shield indicates it or stand for Margaretha (* um 1416, † 1486) - under her order also the so called Margarethengroschen were minted in Colditz, which had always a M as a sign for her order in the circumscription.
see you
Ruford

Hello Ruford ,
Thanks for your help so far .
I can't find a match until now at coins of Meissen -Colditz .
On my coin we see on the av. bust to waist , shield and sword
On the rev. the letter M could be a part of the legenda M(ON) (ETA)
We still searching further !
Kind regards , Pinpoint
