Title: Jetton Post by: GJH on May 22, 2015, 01:57:48 PM I found this Jetton yesterday, I'm not too good on ID's but am I right thinking that this is a 1340 Shield of France Jetton, it's 25 mm in diam.
Thanks Geoff Title: Re: Jetton Post by: Chef Geoff on May 22, 2015, 04:49:47 PM Well done Geoff I love finding French jettons nice and chunky and give yourself a pat on the back on the id though there are so many variants of these they can date as early as 1250 right through to 1500 ;)
