CoinOfNote<p>Here is a <a href="https://historians.social/tags/TokenTuesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>TokenTuesday</span></a> piece I really don&#39;t know a lot about. All I have found was on Google which gave the address: GF2H+V57, Barki Rd, next to Lahore School of Economics, Sector P DHA Phase 6, Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan<br />Phone: +92 302 7855501 (but Permanently closed as at 5th July 2023). It&#39;s not listed on Token Catalog or Numista. Does anyone know any more please?</p><p><a href="https://historians.social/tags/Token" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Token</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/WhatIsItWednesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WhatIsItWednesday</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/WhatIsIt" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WhatIsIt</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Mystery" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Mystery</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Numismatics" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Numismatics</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/numismatics" class="u-url mention">@<span>numismatics</span></a></span></p>

CoinOfNote<p>Awhile ago I posted about a Constantivs II Ivnior, VOT X (Roman) coin: <a href="https://coinofnote.com/constantivs-ii-ivnior-vot-x-321-324/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">coinofnote.com/constantivs-ii-</span><span class="invisible">ivnior-vot-x-321-324/</span></a> - I picked it up from a local seller. Today, I visited her &amp; picked up a bunch more! Sure, they&#39;re not expensive or rare pieces, but sometimes its fun just to stare at a coin for awhile to work out exactly what it is (I mean, it is fun right, it&#39;s not just me?) In any case, *I* am looking forward to going through them :) </p><p><a href="https://historians.social/tags/Coins" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Coins</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/AncientCoins" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AncientCoins</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Rome" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Rome</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Research" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Research</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/WhatIsIt" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WhatIsIt</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/WhatIsItWednesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WhatIsItWednesday</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Numismatics" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Numismatics</span></a></p>
CoinOfNote<p>Almost late <a href="https://historians.social/tags/WhatIsItWednesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WhatIsItWednesday</span></a>, but here&#39;s one I haven&#39;t been able to get a solid answer on. It&#39;s 19mm diameter, and weighs 1.99g, same both sides. Unknown metal. Suggested it&#39;s a token from a Japanese Cherry Blossom festival, but happy for any leads or suggestions?<br /><a href="https://historians.social/tags/WhatIsIt" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WhatIsIt</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Unknown" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Unknown</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Help" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Help</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Numismatics" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Numismatics</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Japan" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Japan</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Token" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Token</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Flower" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Flower</span></a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Guess" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Guess</span></a></p>
CoinOfNote<p>Now a more modern one I just like the look of. 100 Francs from <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Tunisia" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Tunisia</span></a>, 1950.

CoinOfNote<p>Ok here is one I&#39;m curious about. Dr Krückels, numbered 149. Single sided. Any ideas please? <a href="https://historians.social/tags/WhatIsItWednesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WhatIsItWednesday</span></a>?</p>
CoinOfNote<p>I was going to save this for <a href="https://historians.social/tags/WhatIsItWednesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WhatIsItWednesday</span></a>, but I&#39;m curious now :) Has anyone got any idea on this <a href="https://historians.social/tags/token" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>token</span></a> please?
