dcv Valued Member United States 142 Posts	Posted 05/28/2008 01:05 am Can anyone identify this? Or know anything about it? Where it was made or who minted it? I have suspicions it may have come from Italy, but not really sure. Th relief on it is super high. The diameter is 50mm. The rim thickness is 4mm. Including the relief, the overall thickness is 10mm.
