[QUOTE="lincolncent, post: 1373323, member: 22506"]The only coins/jettons known with that obverse were minted in the late 1710's and early 1720's. The reverse roughly translated from Latin is The Palace of the Sun. From what I can tell the "26 Janvier 1906" and "F.J. Parsons" may be counterstamped onto the piece but we really need better pics. You may have an undiscovered 1723 jeton which would be very cool, but if you could get clearer pics of the reverse it would really help. "Batinend Du Roy" is something "of the king" but I have no clue what batinend is. Google searches turn up nothing as well. Here's your F.J. Parsons: [URL="http://www.sussexpostcards.info/publishers.php?PubID=215"]http://www.sussexpostcards.info/publishers.php?PubID=215 [/URL]Would make sense for him to counterstamp pieces although according to exonumia.com no F.J. Parsons counter stamp is known.[/QUOTE]
