Hello,
I am new to the World Coin Forum. I have a bunch of coins from around the world that my husband had in a container. I know literally nothing about them, but am slowly trying to research some of them.
This coin appears to be in pretty bad shape. A lot of detail is smooshed. It weighs 9.22 grams.
Any insight on it's condition and whether it is worth hanging on to, would be appreciated.
Thanks so much.

Hello,
This is my first time submitting under the Token forum, so if this is the wrong place, please re-direct me.
I found this coin in my husband's collection of foreign and odd coins. I tried to research it some through this site and on the web, but was having trouble finding out anything about it. I believe it is just a token, but was unsure what type of metals it was made out of, and if it would look a bit better with an acetone bath.
It is smooshed a bit on the reverse and the weight is 12.04 grams.
Thank you for your time.

Thank you so much! I was so excited. It has a colored hue to it of purple and red. I tried to include a photo with the colors, but couldn't get the right angle.
I didn't clean it, but did use pure acetone to try to get whatever is on the bottom of the bust off, but only for about 2 minutes. I was impatient.
Thanks, again.

Sickpuppy, Thank you for resonding. I didn't have any indication that I could see that there was a lamination on photo 1 of the obverse.
The reverse close-ups; the first photo of the word "OF," looked originally like die cracks of some sort, but then I wondered if it was the beginning of a lamination.
The eagle's head looked again like die cracks, but then I wondered about the beginning of a lamination.
The 3rd closeup of the eagle's wing, (our left), looked like a die gouge with die cracks below it. That gouge is an indent on the coin. I think it could look like a die chip from that angle. I wondered if it was a lamination where the silver flaked off, if that is possible.
If I need better photos, please let me know. I am really trying hard with my photos and with learning as much as I can.
I appreciate all your welcomes and responses. Hope you all have a nice Friday evening.
