Hello,

They look like Nuremberg tokens to me.

Thank you! That makes a lot of sense, the designs and sizes and all. I’ve never seen this type of Nuremberg jeton before!

I am also attempting to find out information such as a date, location or maker of some coins just like these. Does anyone have more information about them?

 Yes - here is a wonderful site 

https://www.cgb.fr/ 

which I have used many times. 

 

 At the top of their page 

- change French to English 

- untick ‘En stock’ and instead tick ‘Mots exacts’ 

Then in the Search [Rechercher] type some of the lettering on your item. Press then Enter.

Example: I have this jeton 

 

and on their site I changed to English and ticked the second box. 

Next I put SI VIS PACEM in the Search and these are the results > 

 

 Then click on an image that looks like yours, to get the page itself

Thanks! 

 

I will have a look through this sight and see if I can find anything. Sadly my coin is in poor condition and I will not be able to read any of the outside writing. 

 

 If you can not find it on there [mostly French jetons] 

then add pictures here and maybe I might recognise it from the design. I collect them.

Here is a picture of a coin with the same design as mine

 On that site I found two pages - one side on each

 with similar pictures to yours. Not found a match yet. 

Their descriptions may help you find it.
