octobean Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 Hi there, I am new to this forum. I found this coin/token thing in a box of my granddads and he seems to remember finding it in the ground somewhere. Sorry for the bad photo quality but I believe Queen Victoria is in the centre surrounded by princes of some sort, I can sort of read prince Louis, and in the centre it says Empress of india. Its about 1.5-2cm in diameter, very small. Any Help or information would be greatly appreciated Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

constanius Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 BHM#3603 issued in 1897 for her Diamond Jubilee, the info on the link is correct except for the inscription, which is H.M. QUEEN VICTORIA AND EMPRESS OF INDIA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
octobean Posted October 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 Thanks Constanius,very helpful indeed. You wouldn't happen to have any idea of rarity or value would you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
constanius Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 The rarity is given as N. for normal. Unfortunately, even in great condition, they are not worth very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
octobean Posted October 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 I'll keep hold of it in that case then. Thanks for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
