svslav Pillar of the Community United States 2605 Posts	Posted 01/05/2012 12:25 pm Somehow none of these strike me as (real) coins. The top middle totally reminds me of the Malaya and Brit. Borneo 1962 cent I haven't seen design like that elsewhere. What's on the other side? Edited by svslav 01/05/2012 12:27 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Apollo Pillar of the Community Canada 1610 Posts	Posted 01/05/2012 1:02 pm I believe that the first could be a token representing the sikh kirpan. You'll need to post pics of the other sides. If it's the same on the other side, they're tokens. Report this Post to the Staff

You will find examples with designs similar to yours on this zeno.ru page. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
