Still a puzzle.

I got this coin? in march on 2014 and still no clue one where it's from or what it is. I did find similar (not by much) coins of Brazil and Portugal, as well as some Knights Templar buttons.

Any thoughts?




IN HOC SIGNO VINCES around cross/ CONSTANTI dot IMP dot around crown ae 22





Thanks for any help

geki ... I hope this helps?

 

I'm absolutely clueless on this one.

Hopefully the 'medievalists' among us can shed some light on it.

 

It's probably some sort of early Freemason token referring to Constantine when he spoke those words prior to his Milvian Bridge battle and ultimately accepted Christianity (hence the cross).

 

Doesn't look medieval to me - Early modern maybe? Brian has the inscription right...

 

I did a Google search and found this:


Somewhere in here http://media.stacksbowers.com/VirtualCatalogs/2009/Stacks/2009_08CoinGalleriesNEW_LR.pdf

...is a medal/token/coin with similar features.

 

Thanks all. So I wonder if its a Portuguese masonic token then.
