[QUOTE="PlanoSteve, post: 3761321, member: 91609"]You know, often times (read: ALWAYS), when asking for help on an item, you'll want to provide a full image of both the front & the back (obverse & reverse). The reason for this is twofold: (1) Often, clues can be ascertained by other parts of the coin/medal/exonumia which isn't obvious in a partial pic. (2) This site in a numismatics haven - we love to see specimens in all their splendor, regardless of whether we can help on not. It verges on disrespect when only a partial pic is shown & help is expected. No offense intended. I actually collect "Lucky" coins/tokens, but there are so many, I can't get them all & enjoy seeing others. I agree with your assessment of the Chi Rho, but I have no clue about the other symbols. Perhaps another part of the token will help lead to an answer.[/QUOTE]
