Hello, and congratulations on this Forum - it truly has a lot of info... I have this coin, and have no idea what series it is, or what date. Since I'm NOT a collector, my web searches ended in no results... Any idea what this is?!? It has GEORG II D written on the left. The face is turned right On the other side of the coin is the Coat of Arms of Great Britain (or so I think it is) - with the lion and the unicorn... Any kind of info would be more than helpful... Thanks in advance - Goran...

Sorry for not writing sooner fellows. I was out of town... So, the final verdict is - a jeton, right?!?

I looked at the book - unfortunately, nothing there... If You have found a resemblance, please tell me on what page of the book to look Thanks to all of you, for the unselfish help...

Sorry Peckris - but I'm not from the monarchy... This coin was on my grand-grandmother's dress (hence the hole in the coin). Ok - so we definitely cleared the typo... Any idea of it's value and nomination?!? Any idea what the small letters on the bottom of the reverse would stand for? PY? The name of the mint, maybe?!? Thanks very much for the replies!!! This is getting VERY interesting...

Observing it closely, I can, with certainty say this: 1) The obverse has a man facing right. On the left it says "GEORG.II D." On the right it says "G.M.BRI.FR.THR" 2) The reverse has the coat of arms with the lion and chained unicorn Under the coat of arms there's a banner that says DIEU ET MON DROIT (DROIT is seen under the unicorn). Under the banner there are 4-5 letters (... V \ P Y(or F)/) The coin is very light, with traces of yellow color on it. The diameter is 22mm or 23mm. It is OBVIOUS (from the pictures as well) that it is not a perfect quality mint (even the initial circle was not round). The oddest thing is that around the crest (between the lion and unicorn) the letters are HONI SOIT (which should be HONI SOIT QUI MAL Y PENSE), BUT between the crown and crest, the letters are Q I V (as one can see from the picture)... That's all I can say as information - I don't have the tools to make accurate weight measurements...

Thanks for all the info... As You can see on the pictures, it definitely says: GEORG.II.D G.M.BRIT (something) THR On the back side, under the coat of arms, there are two letters PY. Any idea what THR and PY stand for?!? P.S. If You have any links on British medallions - send them... Thank You once again

Well, the only thing I know is that it's been in my family for 150 years. Thanks for the help... Te thing that surprises me is - why does it say GEORG.II.D if it's a portrait of George 3. Were there any coins of George II BEFORE he was crowned king?!?

Here's the front side of the coin
