<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Nicolai3985, post: 22223, member: 1614&quot;]Can anyone ID this coin for me please?&nbsp; My mother found it at work, and left it to me to identify.&nbsp; I&#039;ve had no luck so far.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://cede.psu.edu/~njp154/coin/coin1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://cede.psu.edu/~njp154/coin/coin2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>In case the pictures aren&#039;t clear enough, the coin is worth 2 units of currency, and is dated 1894.</p><p><br /></p><p>The reverse side has a shield in the center with some very fine designs around the edges (not wording, unfortunately).&nbsp; The rest appears to be a double-headed bird of some sort, whose wings make up most of the sides of the surface.&nbsp; One foot is holding a sword, while I can&#039;t quite make out what the other foot has (a round, flat object, with what looks like the hilt of another sword sticking out of it).&nbsp; Above the bird&#039;s heads is a crown of some sort.</p><p><br /></p><p>If I were to guess, the bird design is Mexican-looking.&nbsp; But a little searching for pictures online revealed nothing.</p><p><br /></p><p>Any help please?
