Medieval Germany Brandenburg Franken 6 Kreuzer George Der Fromme 1527 to 1537
This is a 6 kreuzer from Brandenburg-Franken in Germany under Georg Der Fromme. There is a similar medallion with a single-headed eagle, but this one has a double-headed eagle. The example in our picture is in very good condition. It was sold by Fritz Rudolph Kunker during a 2015 auction for $426. Most coins you see are not in as good condition as the Kunker piece. CoinQuest thanks Kunker for use of their coin photo.
