G'day!
I have a friend who asked me if I knew anything about his coin. At first I thought it might be Indian, but then the flower-like symbol reminded me of Morocco. I think I can see number 62, but not sure. Please let me know what you know about this one.

I'm wondering if this is dancer's money (belly money) because I can't see anything recognisable as a date or denomination. If it is, then it's the best looking one I've seen.
Try Imitation Ottoman in the search box above, there's been a lot on CCF .

That might be true, since I can't find a denomination on the coin - unless it's written in letters.
Thanks!

Yep, it's a brass jewellery imitation of an old Tunisian silver coin; see this old thread for a similar one, and a link to what the original genuine silver coin looks like.

You may care to look at this:

It looks as though you have an Imitation Ottoman medal
