Spence Moderator United States 34453 Posts	Posted 04/25/2017 9:48 pm Sorry Vince, but I got nothing on this one. It doesn't look like a coin to me but rather a token. That cross doesn't look like Malta to me and I've never seen one quite like that. In order to nail down the inscriptions, it would help to have a close-up view of the coin as I've mentioned in some of your other threads.

Spence Moderator United States 34453 Posts	Posted 04/26/2017 5:06 pm Those inscriptions are undecipherable by me. You were right about the cross coming from heraldry. It is a form of cross moline called a cross cercelee. That's all I've got.
