Szeląg koronny - Zygmunt III Waza

@idolenz, not really a problem

As @konstantin says, this is a solidus/szelag/schilling of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, under SIgismund III, but it is a szelag Litewski (LIthuanian schilling) since the reverse (shield side) says SOLIDVS M D LITV 16??

Possibly Kop.3469, date 1625

It's just the coin is in a part of Numista I wouldn't want to find a coin in, governed by a hyper-specializer.
I also heard from multiple sources that Kopicki has some very questionable coin adding practices and one should use him with caution.

Many people use Ivanauskas catalogs. You can download the electronic version from this link.

Hope this helps someone.

The date must be 1625. Ivanauskas 2SV151-56.

Now reflecting back on this comment upthread:
... the coin is in a part of Numista I wouldn't want to find a coin in, governed by a hyper-specializer.

1. I agree that it is tough to navigate the Poland-Lithuania Commonwealth section of Numista (Poland, Kingdom of, refereed by the same member, is much easier to navigate, being organized by ruler then denomination)

2. However, the hyper-specialization allowed me to get the correct date, using only Numista for reference! I admit, though, that occasionally when I gone to list a Polish coins in my Numista collection, I get pretty frustrated .

By the way. My video about the Lithuanian shillings 1625-1626, not included into any catalog. In Lithuanian with Russian subtitles only. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ilFlDJ5QXY

Comparing mine to Numista, the closet one is Szeląg koronny - Zygmunt III Waza 1597. It is not an exact match but this was made when variations exist.

The front with the crown and two shields look awfully like the front of
Szeląg litewski - Stefan Batory

Απόσπασμα: "TheEnabledDisabled3"​The front with the crown and two shields look awfully like the front of
​Szeląg litewski - Stefan Batory

​Not really. This is my one with the clear date 1625.

On the side of the coin with the S, you clearly have SIG III in the legend for SIgismund III, so this rules out Stefan Batory. Also, there is the symbol of the Vasa family in the middle of the S.

On the side of the coin with the shields, you clearly have a legend SOLIDVS M D LITV (Solidus of the Grand DUchy of Lithuania), which makes this a szelag litewski (Polish description). The szelag koronny would have SOLIDVS REG POLO...

@gdrsb is an authority on Lithuanian coins. You can trust the attributions that have been provided.

It looks similar since the crown is inside the circle and the shield has a similar look

Maybe you are having trouble reading the legends? The combinations of the legends and the design make it clear which coin this is.

I have short eyesight and even with the equipment I have, it very difficult for me to know. Especially since I am still a novice

Could it be a 1626 Kopicki 3469?

I think Kop. 3469 is uniquely assigned to 1625.

Here you can see an example of the 1626 Lithuanian schilling: (Kop.3471).

You can see that the outline of the shields is not complete at the bottom, the proportions of the crown to the shields is a bit different, etc.
I think this is why @gdrsb assigned the date 1625.

Yes
