The only info I can find relates to an old Ottoman Mining Company Token (old ebay) can anyone confirm or provide any further info. I cannot see any trace of the reverse. Thanks in advance.

Petrus Pillar of the Community Belgium 2895 Posts	Posted 04/21/2014 2:47 pm hammers are indeed norwegian : http://markyourcoin.weebly.com/norw...e-noreg.html Maybe Norwegian-Danish colonies? (Frederiksborg in Kpompo ?) Colonies : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danish...onial_empire Denmark took a lot of norwegian colonies. Hotel token in 'piaster'-area?

Numismat Pillar of the Community United States 1666 Posts	Posted 04/23/2014 05:18 am No I don't have additional info. There is a book that covers these types of tokens, but it's in Turkish. Report this Post to the Staff
