I need help!!!

Can anyone tell me what I have here? As you can see, the coin has two heads on either side and when you look at a head and turn it upside down a new head appears. This illusion applies to both sides of the coin. All four heads are different. Can you help? Thanks!!!

A token

 

Sorry, that's rubbish. It is a 19th century religious medal...

 

It looks very interesting, anyway you can get a large shot so we can read it?

 

There's a thread on this in another section.As I have explained,it is a medal depicting the mythical Pope Joan,who is believed to have been a Popess of Rome.

Thanks to Aidan! and whatever to all others

The info you gave me, on that other "thread" was more then what anybody else has been able to give and I did go to W-pedia and read. It was informative, but your original reply, " it looks like a " left an open end of uncertenty which is why I kept persuing for answers. As you see, as usual the replies I've been getting, "a token", "It's rubbish" and so forth, have been extreamly inforative "HA!" My father-law gave it to me befor he died, I didn't ask the "rubbish" man how much it was worth. I guess mister "token" likes his answers short and simple. You on the other hand, I'll just say thank you and I'm sorry if you got annoyed with me, it wasn't my intetion. These threads are new to me and "DA" confusing. But I did learn to navigate somewhat, hopefully the next site I go to will be a little better. You take care of yourself and thanks again!

One more thing. When I see another Piece of "token rubbish" like mine with an expanation of what it is :desk: , then I'll be satisfied :smile . I'm sure you, unlike the :stooge: and probably like most other collector's can understand.

 

hello friend.. I can understand your frustration.. But believe me, I found this wonderful site full of helping hands.. These guys are quite open-hearted and very honest.. I dont think their intention was to hurt your feelings or something like that.. They were just trying to help you.. And ofcourse, everyone sometimes do make mistakes.. and they will surely admit it if they are wrong.. I'm quite sure about it..

 

The original posters attitude problem certainly wouldn't encourage me to be of any assistance to him / her.


I wish them best of luck with their token / thing.

 

Well how else would you want me to type Keemo and Ian. All I know is, it's just not a coin - If it's not a coin, then it must be a token or medal. Not knowing anything else, what else do you expect me to type out? Another 500 words of explaining that I don't know what it is either??? You can read it any ways you like but if you or others have read it negatively, unfortunately that wasn't my intention to.

 

gxseries I think Ian was not refering to yourself as you are not the original poster LOL Keemo you asked a question and it was answerdA Token'? this was not disparaging at all it was a honest answer, this was followed by the Rubbish comment again not aimed at your token but at gxseries answer so why not have :hug: all around :hug:

De Orc :hug:

 

Could you post bigger pics so we can read the inscriptions? May provide better clues to identify them with.

 

I was referring specifically to the original poster in this thread.

 

Ian, let's say being up on the computer at 2 in the morning isnt' too helpful.

Moderators, will it be possible to merge this thread and the other thread together in the coin chat section?

 

Too right!

Aidan.

 

Three right.
