Medieval French jeton?
« on: April 17, 2014, 11:17:01 pm »
This token is 28mm in diameter, and appears to be copper.   The script looks medieval, and based on the fleur-de-lis, seems to be French.  Any thoughts on what exactly it is, and when it was minted?  Also, what would be an appropriate reference to list such things?  I'm not even sure where to look.  Thanks!

Thank you!  Now that I know what it is, I see that is how the legend reads.  Much appreciated!
