Agreed, the buttons are pretty awesome.

 

That's really nice what you said. Joya means Jewel in Spanish. So it's like a small treasure for you

 

I'm seeing something in the field to the east of the mint mark. Looks like ^^^ although I don't see where on the obverse design that world have originated from.

 

I see what you mean. I'd need to see a straight on shot of the coin to determine what it is. Assuming it's a clash, it could be the shield?

 

I wish I knew how to do an overlay of both sides together. I'm not that commuter savvy.

 

The shield is in the right spot, and the way the vertical bars on it meet the edge of it is intriguing given the shape of the marks.

 

Would you mind showing another photo of the reverse of the dime with a straight on shot?

 

Strong feeling that the buttons are replicas.

 

ditto

 

Certainly the UK 5p and 10p and 1 shilling coins no longer legal tender, but very probably not worth anything. The UK 1p and 20p remain legal tender here.

Keeping the stuff together in the box will give you some memories for ever.

 

Cool! I like every thing you have.
