collector1961 New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 07/02/2017 4:24 pm Hi Folks. For better or worse I purchased this 'coin/token' for my son who collects such things. I personally don't know what to call this and believe it is genuine/old, though in rough shape. I believe the material is pewter. Does anyone know what this is and when/where it came from? Thank you for your help!! Report this Post to the Staff

It looks like the obv inscription is LIBERTY AND EQUALITY (maybe?) while the rev inscription is DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE SIGNED JULY 4 1776. I cannot find you a specific attribution, but others should be on here soon enough to help out.
