Found in a $50 bank bag from coin counter. Same size and color of a copper penny. Date of 1911. No words/lettering on either side. A large #2 on one side. The other, almost entire back, like a sort of coat of arms. Similar to some older german coins I've found but not the same.....any help?

I find these a lot in junk boxes. They are less common than the German stuff, but not rare. |
And he that hath lyberte ought to kepe hit wel / For nothyng is better than lyberte / For lyberte shold not be wel sold for alle the gold and syluer of all the world. -Caxton's edition of Aesop's Fables, 1484 |

Thanks for the info. With no writing on it, I was searching and searching with no luck! I was thinking german because of the design on the back. I was close at least. Thanks again. If anyone would like to add this coin to their collection go ahead and PM me. |
