Ted Barnaby New Member United Kingdom 5 Posts	Posted 06/15/2013 5:39 pm Yeah, it's not magnetic and it's approx 2.5cm. Report this Post to the Staff
Ted Barnaby New Member United Kingdom 5 Posts	Posted 06/15/2013 5:42 pm From what I can make out, it's a cross through the centre with a cluster of 3 fluer do lis. I can't make out the letters as yet. Report this Post to the Staff
Tom Goodheart Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 856 Posts	Posted 06/15/2013 5:57 pm I'm wondering if it's a jeton. In which case the lettering will be nonsense anyway. Bit like this one? UK finds database record: http://www.ukdfd.co.uk/ukdfddata/sh...roduct=40343 Report this Post to the Staff
Ted Barnaby New Member United Kingdom 5 Posts	Posted 06/15/2013 6:13 pm Thanks very much for the link. It does appear very similar but the fluer de lis go off at an angle from the cross on mine. Very similar though. Thanks again. Report this Post to the Staff

There are lots of variations of Nuremberg jetons, which I seem to remember were made from brass. This one looks a bit more like yours. Confirmation of the type would be if you can see hints of a dolphin in the other quarters, or the reverse design matches. http://www.cgb.fr/rouyer-x-jetons-d...90276,a.html Oh, and !!
