Judging by the age of it... i will assume that its a silver Gulden......and if so..its weight in gr...would help......and its denomination...i.e. ..1 gulden.2..5..10?..will determine value.....here,s one that i,ve found...so this will give you an indication..

Look up 1698 ducaton / dukaat, sometimes referred to as a silver dollar / daalder.

Maybe ask on a numismatics forum because there are plenty of fakes around and collectors have been cataloguing these fakes for years. They'll know.

Seen similar at around the 100 euros mark.
