Here is the St. George/ship jeton I purchased. I don't really know anything about it except that I really like it.
Any info on it would be greatly appreciated.

BTW Thanks goes out to Coinaddict for bringing it to my attention.

After reading Pythons coinarchive database thread, I clicked on the link and typed in St. George and saw a similar coin #27.
There are slight differances in this example,one being mine has a cloud with a bolt of lightning, and there are no rays coming from Christ's head.
Click on the link below and tell me what you think.

Great looking Jeton, John. I am glad to see that one of the forum members was able to pick it up.

That's a Great St George Slaying the Dragon.

Thanks guys. I was hoping to find a hallmark on it somewhere, but no dice.

Don't know if you can tell from the pics, but the St George side is convex, leaving the ship side concave obviously. There is probably a term for this in the numismatic language, but I don't know it. I'm still a green horn at this.
