Adding another coin of 1.5grams weight for comparison. A different part of the die, perhaps.Pic courtesy to seller.

Indeed, I guess that with the specimen in this thread, it would be possible to reconstruct the complete die and text.

An unidentified coin is a piece of metal. An identified coin is a piece of history.

Nicely preserved coin with almost a pentagonal shape. Reverse legend is present almost in full.
