    This item appears to have the obverse of Rulau Latin yuc46 but with a blank reverse (uniface). Salesman sample? Error? or?

    25mm
    4.72 grams
    White metal
    See images below.

    Neat. I know nothing about these, beyond the vague notion of their existence, and nothing about specific types at all. But it's cool looking. And being uniface like that, my best (very uninformed) guess would be that it was a die trial of some kind, perhaps?

    Nice, looks like some kind of laborers Token. Interesting design, although I like it I don't know anything about it at all. :cigar:
