I didn't mention the pendant as it doesn't match up to my last one :-\ The coin weight is also my second, but my best :icon_thumleft:

Found it, its deliberately uniface :icon_thumright:

Its for a foriegn gold coin - The Florentine Florin.
First struck in 1252 & was one of Europes earliest commercial gold coin.
They were around 3.3 grams & difficult to exactly date but its a nice early one.

Flear de lis with 2 annulets near base & 2 sets of 3 pellets at top :)

Beats my James I :wink:
