swamperbob Pillar of the Community United States 5362 Posts	Posted 05/03/2013 01:06 am That is a rather strange medal or token. It is of course modeled on a coin from Great Britain from the last year of the reign of Victoria. Narcisco Gonzalez is a person's name and Villagarcia is a town in Zacatecas. What this combination could possibly mean is as big a question to me as to you. Report this Post to the Staff

philadelphian Pillar of the Community United States 3253 Posts	Posted 05/09/2013 1:25 pm There seems to have been a Narciso Gonzalez in Villagarcia, Spain, perhaps contemporary with this token, who produced postcards: Perhaps this was an advertising token, possibly directed at the British tourists who were his target customer base.
