The tarnished look suggests to me that this is brass. Edited by Smallcentguy 12/16/2022 11:33 am Report this Post to the Staff

chafemasterj Pillar of the Community United States 6514 Posts	Posted 12/16/2022 12:05 pm I've done some looking for coins, medals or tokens with a discus thrower on the obverse and a frog on the reverse and came up empty.

It looks like around the Lilly pad there are four letters: P O D O and two stars.

Sliegh81 New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 12/16/2022 8:05 pm Yeah I've searched them millions of times and found nothing it really has me stumped and to find them so deep in the ground makes it more interesting to me Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16837 Posts	Posted 12/17/2022 03:29 am At over 2 ounces, it's way too inconvenient to be some kind of token. They will be brass, not gold - gold won't tarnish like that. Perhaps some paperweights? 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.
