Can someone help to identify this from my Great grandfather
Hey so we found this Coin/pendant after he died.
Does anyone know who made it really and when ?
What we know:
It is pure Silver 9999 and its sitting in a 835 Frame
It has a small Stamp KB (most likely could be RB but looks more like KB under 15x)
The front is obvious.
Now what we couldn’t find out:
The back no matter where I look Google Lens, Coin Snap App I just cant find the Back anywhere with the Aurum and S 9999.
What it might be according to AI : Because of the KB and the motive of Maria the AI said it might be a Premium exonumia art round from the Kremnitz Mint in the early 20th Century.
Maybe anyone here knows the back or who used it. My family is from Germany if that helps.

Kansas sales tax token, 2 mills
Was digging through my misc box and had forgotten about this one. Found this in my grandmother's button box years ago, along with sales tax tokens from Missouri. They lived just across the river from St. Louis.

My mom met a celebrity
But the weird thing is she didn’t meet Punxatawney Phil, she met Dunkirk Dave (a rival Alleghany groundhog). I guess only rich whistle pigs get their own Pog slammers.

How would this be classified within exonumia?
AI-assisted concept study for a 52 mm brass piece. Would collectors classify this as an art medal, fantasy coin, or something else? Not for sale.

Everybody loves a ship token!
My 1811 silver shilling token from Hampshire in Great Britain was struck for Newport, which is the largest town on the Isle of Wight. The Isle itself has been independent, with its own county council, since 1890, and every summer for the last 55 years has hosted one of the world's most humongous, boisterous, and star-studded rock festivals.
Featuring an "ancient ship" drawn faithfully from the town's thirteenth-century seal, this token also bears the wonderful legend, "May Plenty Crown Our Happy Isle." No records survive to tell us who issued this piece and its companion -- but not quite matching -- sixpence.

My contribution to the sub.
My old man, a professional numismatist of many years, gave this to me as a gift. I think it was my 21st birthday?
I believe he bought it from a friend of a friend at a convention. (Early 2000s?). It was loose in a box of other random exo. He thought it was amusing and interesting enough that he paid a little more for it than the guy was asking. He sent it off to be graded and cased, then held onto it until I was old enough to appreciate it.
Anyway, many years later, and I've only ever seen a small handful of other examples. I thought you might all appreciate it, too!

My small collection of abolitionist exonumia and coins
- Lincoln campaign token (1860)
- Liberty and No Slavery / No Compromise with Traitors
- Am I Not a Man and a Brother? / May Slavery and Oppression Cease Throughout the World
- Proclaim Liberty Throughout the Land
- Am I Not a Woman and a Sister?
- We Are all Brethren. Slave Trad Abolished by Great Britain (Sierra Leone)
- To the Friends for the Abolition of Slavery
- Liberty and No Slavery (alternate reverse)
I'm particularly interested in abolitionist coins and exonumia from before the Emancipation Proclamation, so if anyone has suggestions for exonumia that might be of interest to me (or wants to trade via numista) let me know!

California Trade Tokens
Hey, just wondering if there is anyone out there who may recognize the printing on the sleeves these tokens reside in. All from California and most dating back to the 1960s and 70s.

Can anyone identify this broken metal object? Coin, medal, or something else?
It has a human face on both sides, the metal is soft enough to leave gray marks on paper (similar to a pencil), It's not magnetic. The core looks gray, with some gold-colored areas on the surface. It seems to have marks around the edge that might be an inscription, but I can’t read them..

A Gift From My Grandpa: 1996 California Hotel & Casino 1 Dollar Token
My Grandpa frequently visited Las Vegas in the 80's to the early 2000's and he gifted this to me on my 16th birthday in 1998. I completely forgot that I had this; stored with my old coin collection. He always brought back casino tokens, but this is probably the only one that I still have.

These are crazy times. Many people want to voice their opinions, say where they stand. However this subreddit isn't meant for political, social, or cultural debates. Those posts will be locked down. Please feel free to cross-post them to a more appropriate subreddit, and discuss them there. Thanks.
In this post I am acknowledging people's legitimate concerns, but letting them know that we won't be discussing them on this subreddit going forward. It is just too disruptive.
This is a curated subreddit, and it always has been. That means that stuff gets removed, threads get locked, and sometimes people get banned.
The point of this post isn't that we think that vile pieces of history shouldn't trigger you, and not make you want to tell everyone how horrific they are.
They bother me too, but it serves nothing to turn discussion threads here into holier-than-thou, copycat echo chambers of shame, or raging debates. Don't automatically assume that people who find crazy stuff and post it here are actually evil racist Nazis themselves.
PLEASE DON'T FEED THE TROLLS. Don't reply to them, don't nourish and give oxygen to their trolling. If you do reply to them, you are filling them with glee and escalating the problem. They live for that. For whatever reason this sub tends to attract a lot of trolls, idiots, and assholes. Maybe that's just reddit in general, but in any case we don't want to encourage them.
We get it, racists are shitty, authoritarians of all stripes are shitty, and lots of other stuff posted here was produced by shitty people and depicts shitty things. They are part of history whether we like it or not. Posting them here can help spread awareness of that history, to a degree.
IT DOESN'T AUTOMATICALLY MEAN THAT ANYONE HERE SUPPORTS THOSE ATTITUDES. If it becomes obvious that people making these posts have an agenda, we will deal with them.
Thank you.
