Two more odd world tokens, Would it be possible to ask for their value and origin? Thanks in advance.

I could swear the top right image look like a face
I have no idea what they are either, but they sort of look modern.

The one on the left is some kind of fantasy "coin", done in a pseudo-mediaeval style; two knights riding on one horse is, as any fan of The DaVinci Code could probably tell you, the symbol of the Knights Templar. However, I don't believe these Knights ever issued coins of their own. It may be a copy in metal of a wax or lead seal. Quote: chequer said: I'm thinking someone posted the one on the right before ... a gaming token of some kind perhaps Yes indeed, a gaming token from some place called " Aladdin's Castle". Here's the most recent thread with one.

The one on the right is a token from Aladdin's Castle and is usually for the video games. Bill

SIGILLUM MILITUM PISTI Seal of the Knights of the Cross, not official latin put in Templars common Language. I think this is an touristic thingie from an ancient templars fort at Southern france, Cyprus, Malta or Rhodos, not older then approximately 1965.
