This is a duit from seemingly 1698, Gelderland.
The problem however is, that this date isn't listed ANYWHERE in any catalogue.
Is this a potentially newly discovered date?
The Gelderland mint was definitely active in the late 1690s (there are many silver ducats from that period and province).
Newly discovered date? [Duit Gelderland, 1698].

Another possibility is that the last digit is a zero (since the lower part of the 8 does not look fully formed).
The zero varied in size, but there was a small zero used on some dies:
But I agree, it looks like an 8 with a bit missing.

Yeah, I agree. I also thought it was a 0 at first, untill i saw the slanted part.
It could be a mistake by the engraver that resulted in it looking like a 8.

To me it looks like a 0, if it was an 8 it would have touched the flower what is under it imo.
Yeah it would be inside of the flower thing, which is possible but strange.

Ok, I see it. But it is a 0 too, imo

Yes, although I think he sent it to show that a number inside the flowers is possible.

This coin also has a flat spot in the bottom left corner of the zero, which would explain the same one on my example.
(although it's not as severe as my example)

theres a bit missing on the bottom left, to me looks more like 1690
