Title: Re: IDENTIFY DOC Post by: The Doc on September 15, 2010, 07:11:31 PM That's an unusual find.
In form, it would be described as a bracteate. This is a coin or token of thin metal where the design is stamped from one side only, leaving the back with a reverse image. Has an Eastern look to it, but I've not tracked down an ID yet. Title: Re: IDENTIFY DOC Post by: davtec (dave) on September 15, 2010, 08:51:50 PM thanks very much ;D
