    Not sure what this is? --SOLVED-----

    Not sure if this is a coin or what. Cant find a date on it. Doesnt appear to have any writing, just symbols/letters on the back and an elephant on the front. Im not positive on the material. Those who have held it thought it was too light to be lead. Some guessed tin or nickel. It is is about the size of a 50 cent piece. Thanks for your help!Not sure what this is? --SOLVED------front-1.jpg[attach=2Not sure what this is? --SOLVED------back-1.jpg]

    I live in a state of rules where I am not permitted to live on my own country land because my home is not 130 MPH rated! I can only visit it from time to time and pay the fines.  I feel so safe with Big Government protecting me. In some states its illegal to collect rainwater.
