Young head and Old head on the same medallion.! Possibly two coins joined.! Must have been worn for a long time to smooth out so much.:dontknow:

It looks like one of these (not the gold one obviously).  I wonder how it got so worn.

Nioce, and I'd lean toward spending a bit of time in water to look like that but could be wrong.

I saw some for sale on ebay the other week
they are so beautiful
I have one but it is not a really high grade , got it years ago in a lot and fell in love with it , no box either
they seem to come in bronze, silver and I wonder if they were also struck in gold?

Yet again that blue velvet shows what it can do :(

I think the silver look a lot better than the copper
