That's it. It looks like she was an XI century German empress, later made a saint.

It's the same as in Cointalk thread. I found no pics of this medal elsewhere so I'd say it's from sometime after she was canonized around XIII century.

Thank you all!

I found on Google German/Austrian queen Kunigunde?

Alexander I tetradrachm.

A friend of mine from Syria told me that when they fled Syria in a hurry in the 90s they tossed his grandfather's coin collection in the trash!? There were over 100 coins of all kinds 😲

Roma numismatics recently had a couple of dozen+ owls that went starting around $300. I read they have many from a Turkish hoard recently found.

I did spot a few super large ones on eBay but the prices are woof around $800 to a grand. The largest are called octobols. They are unfortunately out of my budget as much as I would like one. I think I'm happy with the example I have. idk if I can afford a bigger one.

Roma numismatic has a dozen or so on their shop, probably "unsolds"
