    Hi,

    Picked this up in a LCS “junk” basket awhile ago. I’ve been unsuccessful in identifying it. It’s quite small, about 7x10mm and very thin.

    any ideas?

    thanks!

    My immediate reaction on seeing the flan shape is "denga".

    Ahhh, I believe you’re correct! Thanks!

    Definitely not ancient, either, so apologies for posting in the wrong place. In my defense, until now I’ve never heard of “denga” and the flan shape made me think “ancient.” A quick search makes me think this is a pre-reform variety, probably from the 15th century.

    Interesting I have never heard of one before.
