Group, I am not at all sure what this is, but I assume that it is not a coin. It has almost no writing on it and even that, I cannot make out. It is 25mm. Anyone have any idea what it is? Have you even seen this before? Is it possibly a game token? Thanks, -Daniel Attached Thumbnails     01-14-2009, 05:21 AM   #2 (permalink) Coinman1974 Senior Member   Join Date: Jan 2008 Location: Boston, MA Posts: 281 My Mood: Daniel, One quick question, not that I have any idea where this came from, but is there any edge lettering?

No, it is a reeded edge. And it has medallion rotation (forgot to mention that).

I have tried looking up token clubs, Wikipedia, Google , etc. I will continue researching this, but do hope another member comes along with more token knowledge then I.

I don't recall anything was concluded other than it is most probably a fantasy piece. __________________ 'The vanquished always seek to imitate their conquerors in their dress, insignia, beliefs, and other customs and usages...' - Ibn Khaldun, c. 1380   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
