Curious find today.

[Tiezto]

Can anyone help me identify this token/coin please?

I found it today searching for goldies. Its the only other find apart from $70 in golds.

Any help appreciated.

Some better pics. They are horses.

Perhaps a racing club token? Was it found near an old racetrack?

Near an old showground

It looks rather Celtic:

What's the design on the other side?

My guess is that it's a gambler's lucky charm, with a design based on the ancient Celtic horse symbols on their coinage. Dropped in the showgrounds, perhaps while playing two-up.

I'll go along with that grubsake. Found this in the Celtic coin pics. But I really don't think it will be a 3rd Century BC Celtic coin found here!

But there are some similarities to the one I found. This one is silver though.

Cheers,
