nemesis2100 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 03/14/2017 1:58 pm Hello, I found this item in a box of old coins from around 1700-1900. It looks like a small coin but is really thin so it may be part of a button or something else as well. I did my best at identifying some of the text, but I may be misreading it. Also, it looks more copper colored than silver but the photos may misrepresent that. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. Diameter: ~14mm Weight: 0 (my scale doesn't register it) Thickness: < 1/2 mm side 1: -cross center -Letters: V X + L A V R E? X? ? side 2: -Lion? center -Letters: A R C? V S V E? N L T V? ? * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff
