JBL Valued Member United Kingdom 289 Posts	Posted 09/23/2017 07:15 am Quite obvious what it is but finding further info is not easy. I know the plantation is Sumatra/Indonesia and Deli was originally a Dutch East Indies company. The tokens were paid to the estate workers instead of currency and had to be used on the estate shops. I assume the Chinese script is the value..1 Dollar ? No date indication but it doesn't look or feel old. A worn, silvery coated alloy metal token. Diameter approx 38mm, weight approx 12g. Can't find anything similar to gain a value, so any idea what it is worth ? Many thanks Brian. Report this Post to the Staff

JBL Valued Member United Kingdom 289 Posts	Posted 09/24/2017 2:13 pm Yes, I had seen the Baldwin's page on my Google voyage of discovery ! Only thing is that they all seem to be bronze or copper tokens and of an age, mine does not fit these categories but I will drop an email to Baldwins and see what sort of response I get. Thanks for the interest. Cheers Brian. Report this Post to the Staff
