still lookin for info on coin

 

Hi sgnhntr and welcome to the forum.

I'd be glad to look it up in the Standard Catalog of World Coins if I could see any details of the design or legends, and if it's a coin.

If you can't lighten your pictures up, at least describe the designs on both sides, and quote all legends. From what I can see, it may be a medal or token of some type, but knowing the legends would go a long way toward an ID.

 

My guess would be one of the Indian States' coins, pre 1800.
Try asking at the South Asia Coin Group:

Looks like dump coinage from Iran because of the lion, nineteenth century.

 

Not sure, but don't celtic ancients have similar designs/shapes?

Where did you find it?

 

Roy thanks for looking thats all the detail I can get, Lawdogct it was found in central Texas, Tbirde thanks for the link, thank you all for looking all advice is appreciated.
