pigsandtribbles New Member United States 19 Posts	Posted 01/16/2016 4:02 pm Hello All! So while digging through a bargain bin I picked up this piece, mainly because I had no idea what it was. Now that I'm stuck with it I'd love to learn a little more about it If anyone can help me identify the token, I'd be very grateful! Report this Post to the Staff

pigsandtribbles New Member United States 19 Posts	Posted 01/16/2016 8:33 pm Thank you very much for you response! It sounds like you might be right, I'm going to look into it some more. Here's a little more information about the piece- it measures 40mm or a bit over 1.5" in diameter and weighs 22g. Report this Post to the Staff
