I am new to this site, and have never consider coin collecting before now. Unfortunately I am taking care of disposing of a friends estate and have come across a cashe of miscellaneous coins, mostly all older poor condition US$ so identifying those is no problem.
this one on the other hand has me completely baffled. i have found a couple Israeli coins with (sort of) similar temples on the coin, but nothing that even comes close. I wonder if it isn’t some sort of token for a business?
dimensions of this coin are as follows:
Diameter- 0.838 inches flat to flat, and 0.853 inches at the widest edge to edge. It is not perfectly circular. The thickness of the coin is 0.058 inches. Weight is 62.2 grains
the coin appears to be some sort of copper.
any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
joe.
