dankel New Member United Kingdom 4 Posts	Posted 07/19/2013 2:45 pm Hi, Years ago my Grandad gave my Grandma a coin and told her to keep hold of it, My Grandma did and yesterday when I was looking through old medals and coins of another grandfather, my mother mentioned my grandma had this coin and was never able to find out what it was. I got hold of the coin today to try and find out for her, basically for curiosity. If anyone can help me that would be wonderful, as I cant find anything on it. Thanks! http://postimg.org/image/58my1cuc7/ http://postimg.org/image/l71hyunun/ http://postimg.org/image/3xblt8j9x/ Report this Post to the Staff

CGCoins Pillar of the Community United States 797 Posts	Posted 07/19/2013 3:48 pm MathieuMa is correct, Definitely Tibet. Unfortunately they are not easy to fully identify for me. I have a similar shaped one, but in Silver from 1909 and a religious event. Report this Post to the Staff
