I think these were discussed here somewhere before. I am not sure if the French would refer to them as Jetons or not. They were produced by the...

I think I saw your post in another forum, and I have responded there, but for the benefit of others here, this is what I said: "Some dates in the...

It depends on what you mean by this. If a strong magnet, when sliding under gravity, tarries a bit and does not fly off, that is confirmation that...
That is brilliant - thank you all. Pity about the fake - I feared it was too good to be true. I will pass all the info back to the present owner...
