One sided gold? Token? Anyone have any idea what this is?

This gold colored(probably plated) is a one side struck item that is 17mm and .5g. Any ideas?


Thanks for the help!

    Token made specially for use in jewelry as a bangle.

    Are they usually made of gold or plated? Trying to figure out if this might have any gold value. Thanks.

    That's the kind of thing that belly-dancer costumes are adorned with.

    I seriously doubt there is any real gold at all on that piece... just a brass bangle, maybe not even brass. Cheers, RickO

    Unless it has actual gold content I would value it as worth absolutely nothing. It appears to be a very low quality jewelry item.
