ainsivalavie Valued Member Canada 221 Posts	Posted 03/29/2021 03:01 am I am trying to identify the coin or token below. I know it's not an easy one, but maybe someone would have an idea. Indeed, since the reverse is missing due to what appears to be brockage of the obverse. Also, given the thickness and relatively basic quality of the bust engraving, I'm strongly leaning towards a token (Or medallion) rather than a circulating coin. And I have no idea of the country of origin... - Diameter: 19.64mm - Thickness: 0.96mm - Weight: 2.10g - Composition: Unknown but gilt surface - Edge: Plain Note: Sorry if my English is not perfect. I'm sorry if my English isn't perfect... I'm learning a little more every day. Edited by ainsivalavie 03/29/2021 03:09 am Report this Post to the Staff

The size and basic design and legends are correct for an English farthing of 1949-52, but the bust and lettering look very crude.

But indeed, the fact that the look is very crude and the surface is gilt makes me almost certainly exclude the possibility that it is some kind of farthing intended for circulation. I was left with two probable options: The token or the medallion... But for the rest, I have no idea... I'm sorry if my English isn't perfect... I'm learning a little more every day.
