Thought I would give this one away - we could not figure what this is numismatically yet at least it can make a 110mm conversation piece/dish as noted in this thread - Thread

I will let my 3 year old daughter select the winner next Sunday. I would suggest creative toddler appealing posts to get her attention image

    Really neat piece, and generous giveaway. You're awesome. So is your numismatic/exonumic stuff. image

    I recently benefited from a Zohar giveaway, if I remember correctly, so I'll sit on the sidelines. (Who knows when I'll vanish and become a phantom again, anyway.)

    Zohar,

    Fasinating piece ... I have never seen anything like it before. It reminds me of a porrangier, but without a handle. How deep is the concave side?

    Really dont know if this is a plaque/plate etc. May be old or contemporary.

    I read the other thread on your original link. Is there any wear on the high points on the concave side? Im working on a laptop and it's rather hard to see.

    Since you are one of the Taler experts I figure that you would have all the references that would cover the period, so it must be something outside formal numismatics. I hope someone can identify it as it would drive me nuts.

    Yay, Shroomie, good for you! And Zohar, of course.

    At least we know that since the Shroomdude doesn't smoke, he won't be using it for an ashtray! image

    He'll probably use it for crickets and mealworms and whatever else he likes to snack on.

    Although I'm shocked to have won this, my wife often says I have the mentality of a 3 year old, so maybe that gave me an edge.
