    Hi
    Just found this forum,hope you don't mind me asking a question.My mum dug up a ((coin)) from the garden.It is quite large and heavy,maybe iron.On one side is a picture os a tall ship (clipper) and on the other side it is divided into four pictures one is a ship,one is men round a fire, men hanging from the gallows and men praying to a statue.Any ideas what it could be.It also has a small hole at the top.
    thanks in advance:smile

    It sounds more like a medal.

    Any wording or numbers might prove helpful.
