Im starting to think I answered something wrong.


Removing Iran, The Netherlands and Yemen, from the Numista list ( https://en.numista.com/catalogue/in...=&mt=&g=&se= ) there are only three options left (with six coins to choose from): Belgium, Italy, and the ECU.

I doubt it. I was wrong with the year. Should have waited, but that coin ticked all the boxes at the time and has a pretty cool story. Steve went the wrong way with the diameter question and his guess came from the coin section. Ed's guess doesn't have a definitive year. So now it's up to joe and sprue. Go get him guys.

Does this "coin" have a denomination?

Assuming the item is in Numista's exonumia section, when I put in all the parameters, there seems to be only 7 options.
I asked if the coin was dated 1965 or equivalent and the answer was yes. Only one item in the list is dated and that is also from Yemen.

Not that I'm aware of. It was in my list after narrowing everything down. I think some may have discounted it for being Yemeni and overlooked that it was minted in Austria.

That tripped me up, the thing about "issued" vs. "minted".

Okay, this will probably be an easy one, but I have a coin.

Well at least I got the Yemen part right. If only I had waited 2 more minutes for an answer. :)

Spruett, was the coin issued in the Americas?
