Mcfahy New Member Ireland 10 Posts	Posted 04/06/2020 10:06 am found this 1cm copper item in west of Ireland. Curious to know if you can make it out. The idea of a token or charity change comes to mind. Thanks in advance. Carl Edited by Mcfahy 04/06/2020 11:01 am Report this Post to the Staff

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 04/07/2020 12:40 am First side appears to show a shield, quartered, with arms, or perhaps a castle with windows; the other side is just odd... The appearance including rust suggests a steel or iron alloy, or some very low quality billon silver.

RogerRamjet Valued Member United States 172 Posts	Posted 04/07/2020 10:37 pm It does look like three towers. Three towers suggests it could be a coin from San Marino. Report this Post to the Staff
