Large coin - help needed
« on: January 17, 2023, 10:42:02 am »
This one measures around 55mm in diameter. It came from a 1970s building site in London. At some point it seems somebody drilled a hole to make it into a pendant.

Looks like a modern imitation (tourist piece) of a Naxos coin

Certainly not ancient--tourist souvenir.
