This charm was collected by my father-in-law. The note with it says "Charm 1910 - Present from the King - 4 Heavenly Horses" The inscriptions are apparently Cambodian & Siamese. It is 42mm X 33mm in size and might be silver. I haven't been able to discover anything else about this charm.

Very nice, I like the details on the horses. Not 100% sure but this reminds me of the temple tokens they would give visitors..

Dad was a Captain in the Merchant Marine and visited many ports of call all over the world, and many in the Far East. He brought back a lot of pictures of temples so it's definitely possible that this item is a temple token. Thanks for the input!!
