Those No Cash Value tokens are worth millions!The pendent has Jesus on the from & Mother & Child (Madonna with child) on reverse. Probably 50 years max.

Yes Crusader is kidding. Tokens are just that... tokens. As to the medallion its an interesting piece. Never seen a triangular Christian medallion. The markings don't jive for a Christian medallion and I feel you might be mistaken. The front does not remind me of any religious piece save maybe one of Arabic origin and the back does not look like Mary... certainly not with a crown and what looks to be a scepter.

And the Sacred Heart of Jesus is plainly visible on the front of the pendant.

Jesus is very visiable as well. Remember I'm used to looking at hundreds of years of corrosion & degraded images on many types of objects. To me its very clear whats left.

''The triangular shape of Madonnas with crown and mantle, reminiscent of the Goddess triangle, humanities first religious symbol.''See:http://interfaithmary.net/pages/webblackmadonna.htmlShows images similar to yours. You have a crowned madonna & child. I think the origin of this pendant is Italy.

You're new so you probably don't realize this but there is an entire section devoted to identifying objects on this site. Just scroll sown to "What is It". You would probably get more replies but it looks like you've got your answers here so for future knowledge. HH!
