Hey guys,
I recently purchased this coin, and I noticed the year does not appear on Numista. I believe it to be
this coin,
Eglantine mintmark, but my year, 1576, is missing. Could anybody check if this coin was minted in 1576 or if it is a forgery (I sure hope not). Diameter is 25mm, it looks silver to me.
Thank you so much for your help!

your coin sure seems real, contact the referee
https://en.numista.com/echanges/profil.php?id=7319 to have the year added.
Mintmark on yours seems to be the Eglantine also, so same as year 1575

Hello @presedinte and thanks for sharing your coin, which I believe is Sp#2563 (1573-77) and I have just updated the Numista page
here.

Coincraft (2000) lists many more dates and mintmarks for this type, which is EL6D-015, under "Third Issue" on page 249: pheon, rose, portcullis, lion, coronet, castle, and acorn; in addition to the ermine (1573-74) and the eglantine (1573-77).
