Heather67 Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 I'm dissolving my father's collection and cannot find this coin on any image searches or coin apps. It measures 1.75" wide and 29.29 grams. Any help is much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, someone will drop by with the precise information you seek. Best of luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenntucky Mike Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 I agree with HC in that this may not be a coin, I don't think it is. It looks like there may be some text at the top of the piece in the second pic, if you can provide better images we might be able to get a little further in the investigation.

Heather67 Posted December 22, 2023 Author Share Posted December 22, 2023 There is text wrapped around the top, very much coin-like. We think it might say Austria at one area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is almost certainly a medal or commemorative souvenir of some sort, if you can provide clear pictures of the complete text people may be able to narrow the choices down. Is there any edge lettering on the piece? Edited December 22, 2023 by Fenntucky Mike Words Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Meenderink Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 (edited) It is some type of Roman wedding commemorative token or medallion. The figures and details of the design suggest Roman. I cannot find a match. The coin is very old.
