rjhutchings New Member United Kingdom 1 Posts	Posted 08/26/2023 09:35 am Hi, I have been asked to identify this coin/token, and was wondering if I could please get some advice? I believe it to be a tourist token from the Diamond Quarter in Amsterdam. Would this be traded for souvenirs etc, and what would the value of it be roughly? The coat of arms is I believe that of Amsterdam, and the reverse says 'Diamonds are Forever'. Has anyone else encountered these? Many thanks Report this Post to the Staff

Second, that is a very interesting token you have there and not one that I can find in the usual places around the interwebs. You might try reaching out to the diamond museum in Amsterdam to see if this comes from their museum store: https://www.diamondmuseum.com/ "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff

With the inscriptions being in English, I suspect you're correct about it being a souvenir token from Amsterdam. Though I'm sure these were two of the places Spence checked, I went ahead and searched through Numista and tokencatalog.com and also found nothing. Member of SPMC, FCCB, ANA and ANS.
