These are 20th-century British toy coins. The top left-hand two are plastic - the 3d piece came from a toy cash register I had as a kid! The others are cardboard and were found by my Mom many years ago in a tin at the school where she was a teacher.  |

Hi, this is a coin-like button, it is made of silver (billon). It is from Buenos Aires (Argentina) and they were common during second half of 19 century. They are named gauchos buttons. They used , as model, coins of (CAROLUS) spanish kings Charles III or IV. OBV: LABOR IMPROB. OMNIA VINCIT 1878 REV: HISPAN ET IND R BOT DE PLA (Boton de plata =silver button)  v. Edited by Veton

 Silver and bone gaming chip from the INTERNATIONAL SPORTING CLUB MONTE CARLO On one side, picked out in silver filigree, the initials C.S.I and on the other side the figure 5. This chip is probably around 100 years old, the club itself was founded in 1904. |
