    Here is a coin I found in the same lot as my previous post. I just wondered if anyone had any ideas on this one. It is gold color and reads RECUERDO MATRIMONIAL. Thanks again

    How big is it and what does it weigh ? It's a wedding medal but I have no idea if is gold or not.

    Sorry forgot to put that info. It weighs apx 2.1 grams and is just slightly larger than a US cent but thinner.

    Then it is probably gold.

    It is a Mexican wedding token.

    Edit- wow, this was an old thread.

    @Angelica - take it to a jeweler and get it tested. The one posted above eight years ago (!) looks like it might possibly have been gold. Many - even most- are just gold plated and worth a dollar or less.
