featherandmountainman New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 09/14/2011 5:53 pm Hello from Indiana. I enjoy collecting unusual items from old home sites and this is something I found 17yrs ago and still have not ID'd it. I believe it may be some type of very old coin. It is about an 1 and 1/2 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick through the center. It is not magnetic. Has anyone have any idea what I have? Oh and I also have a nice collection on wheat backs too Title edited by Forum Mom and duplicate topic deleted. Report this Post to the Staff

Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 09/14/2011 6:19 pm I have no idea what it is -- it might not be a coin. If it is thicker in the middle than it is at the rims I would suspect that it is a charm or piece of jewelry. What's on the other side? Report this Post to the Staff
