BobAlmighty125 Valued Member United States 199 Posts	Posted 04/24/2012 5:04 pm Going through a set of coins, (cataloging, carding, labeling, filing), I came across these two. I think the Tibetan is a Y-21 but I don't know the date or variety (other than the fact that it isn't a 21a). The Israeli one isn't in any of my reference books. Can you help me out?

Quote: this coin is not a real coin it is written on it 1 peace and I guess it is some symbolic coin for the peace process (the back side however is like the back of the 10 agorot from the "lira" period).

Numista lists it as a token, it's not dated, and I'm not sure what purpose it serves (served). Your sho looks like Y# 21.2, but better close-up would help to determine for sure. I can tell it's Cycle 16, can't see the year but cycle 16 makes it 1927 or later. Report this Post to the Staff

svslav Pillar of the Community United States 2605 Posts	Posted 04/25/2012 9:19 pm The flash doesn't, but the wear does. I can see clearly now that it is Cycle 15. The year is in the "smudge" at eleven o'clock. It's supposed to be fifty-something, and I can make out a faint 5 but have a problem with the second digit. To better attribute the type it would help to get a closer image of the lion too. Report this Post to the Staff
