Image is the same on both sides and appears to be two squirrels at a table. Pictures are the best I could take they are smaller than a dime but thick as almost a Morgan. I don't think they are even coins all though coin guys have said they are Report this Post to the Staff

Don't know if yours is even a coin or medal / token or what though. http://www.ebay.com/itm/321905487214?_mwBanner=1 Report this Post to the Staff

It is a lead seal for a whiskey bottle. It hangs with a little rope around the neck. On the seal you see two squirrels, besides the arms of Kilmarnock, used by Johnny Walker on their bottles: http://www.bagseals.org/gallery/mai...itemId=20586 Both sides have the same picture: http://www.bagseals.org/gallery/mai...itemId=12018 https://www.google.be/search?q=%22a...DG0Q_AUIBigB https://finds.org.uk/database/artef...rd/id/552029 https://finds.org.uk/database/artef...rd/id/761233 Edited by Petrus 01/16/2016 7:09 pm Report this Post to the Staff
