alganbagerap Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2490 Posts	Posted 05/23/2014 08:22 am It's too big for a pre decimal threepence, and that's all I can think of in brass. Report this Post to the Staff
austrokiwi Pillar of the Community 2087 Posts	Posted 05/23/2014 11:23 am reminds me of a weight for the types of scales seen on old corner stores ( In the days when you could ask for products by weight) Report this Post to the Staff
colonialjohn Pillar of the Community United States 1757 Posts	Posted 05/23/2014 12:10 pm See here: http://www.royalmint.com/discover/u...f-a-50p-coin Hence not a coin planchet but a token or a 3ii type weight as suggested by austrokiwi?

Sides are curvilinear and designed to roll. Report this Post to the Staff
