Sap Moderator Australia 16805 Posts	Posted 01/19/2026 9:50 pm I'm not entirely sure it's anything numismatic - just because something is round and made of metal, doesn't mean it's supposed to be a coin. I don't think there ever was any writing or other markings on this piece. The pattern of lines on both sides makes me think of a tortoise/turtle shell. So my very-wild-swing guess would be some kind of turtle-themed jewellery that it was originally attached to. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

I was somewhere between a turtle and a volleyball. But agree it doesn't look like a coin. Based on the edge photo, is this a detector find? Report this Post to the Staff
