I think this should be under the 'What Is It?' category. Doesn't look like gold to me-- more like tarnished brass from the color of it. Gold rarely gets any tarnish. Might be a religious medallion-- hard to say without a picture of the other side.

I have said it a zillion times, Gold always looks like gold, it does not tarnish, etc. That does not look like Gold!
 

I'm not so sure its a coin at all, we need more pictures of both sides. Like others state, it looks more like brass/copper than gold.
 

Oh well it was absolutely nothing.It actualy had a fold in it that I did not see and when I took it apart ,it all broke upand was very thin. Big time JUNK.Sorry for even posting this pic. I was just dreaming of gold with that low tone it had......
 

Then you know how we all feel when that deep dug foil champagne wrapper appears. We're with you, believe me.
 

Been there done that, but the next one maybe the real deal! HH!
 

Interesting find...
