[QUOTE="Saving Our History, post: 669492, member: 24614"] Hi everyone, Thought I may as well continue with this thread. I have been sorting through some of my stuff today, and I have found this coin within my collection. I've done so much research on this coin and I have absolutely no idea what it could be as it is very worn and faded. I know for sure it is a foreign coin (not Australian), possibly French or Spanish and possibly dating back to the to early 1700's or maybe earlier ?? (Apologies for the quality of the pictures, I've tried to get the best angles and light on the coin. It's about just over the size of an AU 10c coin) [B]Images are below :[/B] Side profile of the thickness of the coin. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Side profile.jpg"]10194[/ATTACH] Obverse of the coin. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Obverse of the coin.jpg"]10196[/ATTACH] Reverse of the coin. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Reverse of the coin.jpg"]10197[/ATTACH] Any help and/or suggestions is very much appreciated! Thanks! Saving Our History (Kato) :) [/QUOTE]
