Default Charles vll of France.

This is Not a find but definitely needs some ID.Got it in a mixed bag of coins.I think its probably genuine but what exactly is it.Any help appreciated.

Just found this.Maybe it doesnt date to 1447.Can anyone translate some German?

Es ist eine Medaille welche von den BP-Tankstellen herausgegeben wurde. Es gibt verschieden Motive von diesen Medaillen.
Mehr weiß ich jedoch

I can work out Bp petrol station but this doesnt look like a copy.It looks old.HELP.

Thanks Voriax.Ive seen similiar on ebay but this looks older somehow, not a cheap BP Petrol station rip off.I may of course be wrong.No tis a rip off.It says bp collection on it.

Looks to me that your jeton also says 'collect...' Hard to see as the bottom is so damaged.

Definitely modern corroded cheap metal. No French 15th century coins look anything like that. (how they're made, not the design)

I would not want to see one of those in the dirt. Well maybe just for the quick rush.
