Hello daventriae, Dannenberg lists this coin under Strassburg, Dbg. 908, because of the striking similarity between the portrait on this coin and the Otto portraits on other Strassburg coins. The legend should be: .OTTO. MAGNVS and +SCA. MARIA - Strassburg cathedral was at that time dedicated to the virgin Mary.

Hello Mumde,

Thanks for your info. Can you also give an estimate value of this coin ?

Gr: Daventriae.

Sorry, I do not give estimates in the forum. The coin is rare, and it would fetch a high price if the OTTO MAGNVS were legible, because it is interesting that he was styled "the Great" on a coin.
However, the more interesting parts of the legend are missing. As it is, the price depends on who sells it to whom in which situation.

Ok, I understand. I will look further....
