Thanks for the explanation Doug and Conder. it would be nice if there was a reputable TGP that specialized in foreign coins. Like ICCS does with...
On older buttons the back side usually had the maker and their location.
Well rascal, if this were a game of chess I'd say you just "check"ed me. It's not checkmate until you post clear pictures of the opposite side though.
Wow, so half actually do read things themselves? I didn't think any of them did.
Would you happen to have the links to those? You've peaked my curiosity. =)

I was really going off of what I was seeing, without considering what the OP had said. My mistake on that. =) The first time I had written that...
I think this may be a partial lamination rather than a clash. There isn't anything on the other side with that kind of curvature. It also doesn't...
