    IMAG0113.jpg IMAG0112.jpg Hello! I recently was given a really interesting charm bracelet from my grand mother who got it from her mother. There are three coins on it and two of them are easy enough to get information about one is a gold 1859 10 Francs and the other is a gold 1895 five dollar libert coin. The third one has no value stamped on it and no country to speak of. It is verified gold and i submitted pictures. on the bottom below 1918 is a small mark C 18. Can anyone help me understand what this is? Im not looking for value just the history! Thank you and any help would be great!

    I think it's related to WW I.
    November 4th was the day when Austria-Hungary surrenders to Italy. That's why is called "Day of the victory" in Italy.

    "Novembre" is november in italian.

    Yes i figured it was either Italian or Spanish. Victoria means victory in Spanish and novembre is november in italian and spanish! I think we are on the right track! but i cant find any record of any peace coins in either country! i didnt know that about the austria-hungary surrender date thank you!

    That sure looks like a French design to me. Could be wrong, but I don't think so.
