Site Research in Scotland and Protected Areas. Sub for e-mail post updates! Search the Archives (Ring, Georgian, Silver etc). Monday, 6 October 2014. Minelab Owner's 2014 Rally, Bucks, England. Lovely Nuremberg Jetton. My first of these found. Although bent, it has some fantastic detail. ca. 14 to 16th C. It also appears to have been pierced to wear as a commemorative piece. These can sometimes be pierced to use as counters, but the positioning of the hole makes me think otherwise. To metal detect and dig.
