numismatist6 Valued Member United States 360 Posts	Posted 02/23/2018 2:57 pm Wonder what these are. They are very thin, measure around 12mm and weigh from 0.33 to 0.54 grams. At first thought these might be Travancore chuckrams but they measure 6mm and weigh 0,25 grams. Sorry but devices are weak. Any ideas what the might be? Thanks in advance. * Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

january1may Pillar of the Community Russian Federation 5174 Posts	Posted 02/23/2018 5:26 pm I also was thinking medieval Europe rather than any kind of India. Bob L's examples sure look similar! The Majapahit issues are incuse on one side (some of those quadripartite squares won't look out of place on a 6th century BC Greek coin). I don't think the OP's coins are like that?
