    I got this is a coin lot I bought a while back and when I got home and looked it up I couldnt find anything about it. Im only assuming its jewish based on the flip I got and I do not think its from 1837 based on the strike. If anyone could help me with what it is and metal content I would apreciate it! 20210218_012159.jpg 20210218_012206.jpg 20210218_012214.jpg 20210218_012221.jpg

    It reminds me of a Good Shepard Carrying the Lost Sheep religious medallion or token.

    I don't know if that's a type of jewish crest. It's usually the Star of David which it looks nothing on that item.

    Probably misidentified by the person who wrote it.
    I also say it looks like the good shepard pendant.

    Looks like a version of St Christopher.

    I agree with the others. It doesn't look to be a coin of any type. Possibly a token or religious medallion.

    Nothing Jewish about it.

    Morgandude11 As long as it's Silver, I'm listening

    I have no idea what religion the coin practices.

    Whenever you see burst of rays or light being emitted from a persons head it is usually Catholic symbolism.
