I'm not an expert in any kind of coins, but I reckon I'm good at research and will do my best to help. Feel free to tell me my identifications/valuations/gradings are wrong. It's the only way I'll learn.
Cita: "doc_man"Thanks, guys.
But, now another question, where to placed that coin at Numista...
I thought it would be there already? Maybe not.
Nope, there are no place for this coins I have some request about other Courland coins. They are not belong to Poland and I doubt (maybe I'm wrong) that should belong to Polish - Lithuanian Commonwealth https://en.numista.com/forum/topic48145.html - why is solved ? Don't know. I remember there once was country as Courland, but right now we don't have. I don't want to create a new country because want to have one more country at my list. But I think Courland should be as country like others similar countries at Numista.
Cita: "sujit_kumar"So for now it is "Polish - Lithuanian Commonwealth" where this coin should be put?
You should ask referee for Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth - Lavrenty
In my opinion you should put in Courland country or there is a need to create in Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth category : Fiefs of the Polish Kingdom with subdivision Duchy_of_Courland_and_Semigallia
Seems the Duchy of Courland already exist in PLC. Did you already create it?

Oh, how dare you to solve this without me just kidding. Oh, how I am glad. I have finally place where I can upload duchy of Courland coins (including one I own). Still believe it should have been new country listing, but whatever, I will place them all there.
BTW: Nice coins Sujit!
PS: Coins of Livonia will be up once Sneyoz shows up. He has small christmass presents in form of almost hundred requests from me.
Good to see that topic with Courland coins is solved I'm not sure if this coins should be there, by creating this subdivision we need to be aware that coins from other fiefs should also belong there ( for example Duchy of Prussia, Polish Livonia,Principality of Wallachia, Principality of Moldovia, Teutonic Order Prussia etc.) , but at least we have place to put them :)
Sujit, now u must wait until Lavrentu will confirm the coin.
Jarcek, i know your presents very well ;p;p
Returning to the topic :
Did you know that Duchy of Courland has their own colony in Gambia and Tobago ? I wonder if they issue coins there ...
Cita: "doc_man" least we have place to put them :) EXACTLY!
Jarcek, i know your presents very well ;p;p Ehm
Returning to the topic :
Did you know that Duchy of Courland has their own colony in Gambia and Tobago ? I wonder if they issue coins there ...
Hell no, I did not know that That would be one of the most amazing colonial issues ever made if there were any coins.
Indeed !
Just read an article about it its wonderful, but in polish only :(
Another one is that Poland could have colony in Guyana, Venezuela, Colombia, Ceylon, Melanesia ( Papua New Guinea) and have it Cameroun 30km square try in Angola. In Madagaskar France dont agree We have also agremment with Liberia. Polish protectorat in Liberia but USA dont agree :)
I think the solution for Courland and in general for all the historical countries is to leave the current old-fashioned country oriented structure of the catalog. The problem will be solved when we have a tagging system. Coins from Courland would have several historical and geographical tags: Courland, Polish-Lithuanian and Latvia.
I know it's a major change in Numista with a lot of development by Xavier, but a definitive solution to one of the two main problems of the catalog from its inception.
