Miss Italy21 Valued Member United States 163 Posts	Posted 12/04/2021 09:54 am Not quite sure what I have here, but I found about 6 or 7 of these disks/coins/medals? in a book I bought several years ago. Several months later, I was going thru some of the books, and these were in between some of the pages? I'm really clueless as to what they are? I asked a lady at the Chinese restaurant we go to, she said not her language. I thought with the dragon and snake, they may have been Chinese? I asked a priest at the Church up the street, he said definitely not Latin or Hebrew? I've taken them to a coin store, pawn shop, nothing? Can anyone identify what these could possibly be and mean? I tried to find an appropriate forum, and stumbled on this? Any info would be great! Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

I think I can see some other Arabic lettering ont he others. The pieces look similar to some "religious amulets" from South-east Asia. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
