    The Obverse of this token shows itself as being struck over another Medal.
    At the bottom I can read "Coins and Medal Corporation". The reverse shows no sign of a restrike.

    That's a nice medal, alurid. The AINA had a habit of stamping numismatic medals over existing coins. I have two in my collection. The "GLACC / AINA" piece is struck over a 1958 Israeli 1-Lirah, and the "AINA" medal is struck over a 1979(?) Israeli 5-Lirot. The pictures don't show any under-type on the overstruck side, unfortunately.

    Thank alot for that information. I was able to see the outline of an menora in the center. And I think mine it not a Coin, But a IANA Token. It is simular to the 1975 KM81.

    This one came yesterday. To me it looks like regular coinage, yet it says "Token" right on it. 1813 GB-EnD 1-2 s obv.JPG 1813 GB-EnD 1-2 s rev.JPG

    It’s a spade guinea. From Coinquest:

    George III was King of England from 1760 to 1820 (he was King during the American Revolution), so the 1700 date on Darrell's piece is a stretch. This is not a coin, but a token, or jeton. It does not appear in the coin catalogs, but one can find these online if you are persistent. Here is what Sven Andersson says (translated from Swedish) on Unga Fakta:

    'It is a game of money, a copy in brass of George III (King of England) gold coins. It was used as a chip in various card games and board games. It produced quite a few of them and spread to various countries.'
