Took the two grand daughters to town today, our usual routine. Today, we walked around the cathedral but the outside, not in. By the perimeter wall, eldest bent fown and picked this up

Incredibly lucky to find it, it was on top of some loose soil where the grass wasn't very established.

Early consensus seems it may be a 15th century jetton, probably European.

A Hammered Coin detecting site think it may be a Sigismund Solidus ,(schilling), Polish in origin. It's a start. I suppose something like a cathedral would attract pilgrims from all over Europe, even hundreds of years ago
The S is similar although In photos of other coins, the ends to the S are slightly different but ....

I can find one for the front, but not with the "S" on the rear. Closest had a crown above the "S", missing on yours.

How large is it?

Here's my collection

Joking aside I am accumulating enough change for a planned poker game; a "cash" game rather a "tournament", so it's easier to use actual money rather than chips
