jhissa13 New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 01/12/2016 4:04 pm I have the below pictured item and can't find it anywhere to determine what it represents. I thought it might have been a commemorative coin but that doesn't appear likely due to its size, as its larger. I then thought it could possibly be a commemorative medal, but again unsure. There are no markings what soever on the edge/rim of it either. Anyone able to help me identify what it might be? Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

Literally every tourist shop had dozens or hundreds. I have a handful that I think came out of a cereal box. Unless it's silver, value is going to be $2-3 on a good day. Report this Post to the Staff
