<p>[QUOTE=&quot;allout123, post: 1219419, member: 18825&quot;]Hey folks. Went down to an antique shop in GA as i&#039;m visiting here, and in a $1-$5 dollar box of loose coins I saw something different that caught my eye. It&#039;s some type of golden in color (I&#039;m 80% sure it&#039;s not gold) token/medallion/coin piece. It has 2 loops on it which look like they&#039;ve been attached after the making of the coin. It&#039;s dated 1754, above the date are 2 Key&#039;s crossed over eachother in a portal looking thing. It has &quot;Moneta Nova&quot; and &quot;Reip Ratisp&quot; worded on the same side. I do know Moneta Nova means &quot;New Money&quot;. On the other side (obverse?) it has a Double Headed Eagle with a crown above the heads. I&#039;ve seen the same thing on Wikipedia, and somehow it&#039;s related to the Orthodox Church and possibly the Russia Empire. It&#039;s worded &quot;Rom-Imp-Semp-Avg&quot; and &quot;Franciscvs-I.-D.-G.. I&#039;m not familiar with world coins, especially pre-1900&#039;s. If anyone has any information, or some refrences I could check out, that would be awesome. Thanks![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
