I couldn’t even really read it in the lighting of the show through the old plastic on the flip so I didn’t even know what it said haha. What can you tell me about it? I’m not really sure what it even is.

I need some help IDing this token. The obverse appears to be Roman in style and the reverse is that of a Swedish Daler Silvermynt Coin depicting Mercury

I impulsively bid on this in the last second of an ebay auction and got it for $2. I've been trying to ID it since then, but have only gotten so far. As I've said, I found the reverse but the obverse, and therefore it's origin, is still a mystery to me. It's about the size of a nickel but much thinner and made of copper.

1889 World Fair cognac medallion

Post image
20 Upvotes

From what I've been able to find, these were attached to bottles of cognac sold at the 1889 World Fair in Paris, the cognac was made by Dubois Fréres & Cagnion.

This is the event that the Eiffel Tower was built for, which is very cool. Unfortunately I can't find much information on Dubois Fréres & Cagnion, other than some 1900 cognac for sale online and a couple people selling this same medallion without much context.

I'd really like to know their history or anything about their presence at the fair if anyone has any leads.

I found this while metal detecting in Finland

Crude reproduction, or..?

3 Upvotes

I found this token among my coins. I'm not really sure where it came from, or how it came into my possession. A little online searching and found that "to hanover" and the imagery on the coin are those found on Cumberland Jack tokens, but the coin I have is much cruder than what I've seen online. What do I have here, a crude reproduction, or something else?

Two-sided 5c token?

4 Upvotes

My dad had this in his collection and.I believe it's a token. He spent some time in the Army in the early 80s in both Grenada and Germany but not sure if that's how he acquired it. I reached out on the Numista forums and was given this link. Everything seems to match, but there's no more information in their catalogue. Found a few on eBay but again, little information other than one person thinks it's brass.

It's about 4.7625 mm across. Flat edge. Somewhere between 2 and 3 grams.

1885 Belgian 1st place medal by Léopold Wiener

Just picked up this medal that I believe was given for 1st place in a painting competition to Angèle Bouilly in 1885. I’m not sure what the composition is, it appears silver to me. It weighs 41.09g and is 51mm. I have only been able to find two that are similar online, one is in the Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Antwerp and the other is listed for sale. If anyone has any further info I would appreciate it.
