Rmassey210 Valued Member United States 160 Posts	Posted 03/12/2013 2:57 pm Hi, I'm wondering if anyone can help me identify this token. I am struggling with either the font or the language, there's several places where there's a letter that looks like a double "I" and can't figure it out. I can make out "medioevo" which I think is Italian but that's about it. (And of course the Roman numerals). Thanks!! Report this Post to the Staff

On the reverse, I see "medioevo," and the date 1992. Medieval festival token? Report this Post to the Staff
philadelphian Pillar of the Community United States 3253 Posts	Posted 03/12/2013 4:42 pm And Sarnano still holds a medieval festival, the Castrum Sarnani, and they mint antique-style coins for the event: Quote: I visitatori che entrano a Castrum Sarnani conosceranno l'antica moneta coniata per l'occasione così l'acquisto di gadget e souvenir o gli spuntini nelle osterie e taverne avrà il sapore d'altri tempi Report this Post to the Staff
