    I am trying to identify a coin/token I recently acquired. I'm not sure if I have the orientation right in the pictures. The orientation is medallic orientation. Its silver in color, 25 mm in size. I am guessing its Japanese writing, and could be some sort of gaming token, but if anyone has a better idea, I'd appreciate a reply...Regards, Bill Unknown0001.jpg Unknown0002.jpg

    It's a Japanese gaming token, and it's upside down. Characters are in katakana syllabary.

    ニユ− : NIYU = New

    ヒマワリ : HIMAWARI = Himawari means sunflower, hence the icon on the coin.
