Thanks all for taking the time. I will continue to look up tokens from Galway city for a match. If you have a moment there is something else I found. And I don't know if it's a token, coin or button. I think it has written on it PLATED and two zeros and a small Cross with 50 in the middle. There is nothing on the other side

the above is a typical cast brass flat button that was gilt or silver plated..dates early 1800s to about mid century...most likely British manufactured

Thank you Ironhorse. I ment to include the fact that it had what I can only describe as a nipple in the middle but seem to have figured that out. Great work. I will try and find more details now I Know what it is

@Mcfahy, I've split this part of the thread away from your original thread so that it can be moved to the exonumia subforum and we keep the unidentified stuff here. Best practice is to start a new thread for each new item that you post. Not a big deal though and thank you for continuing to challenge us.
