    The Australian dictionary spells it "Aluminium".

    I used to think they just pronounced it differently (i.e. wrong), but I looked it up and they pronounce it just like it's spelled (here, anyway).


    That's a cool token. I love that kind of stuff!

    Aluminum was a precious metal in the past. Does that time period include 1860?

    That's one word that it's fun to get 5-year-olds to try and pronounce. I'm partial to "aludimum," myself.

    Alley Luma Numb is the proper name.

    That a one token thats in ship shape.

    Very nice, like that there is other vessels giving more depth by creating fore,middle and backgrounds.

    Thats a excellent point. The token is not aluminum image

    I really need to look at my collection more often image

    This is a false thread, I will await my punishment.


    Edited to add: but thanks for the kind words, it is a beauty, but not a aluminum beauty.

    I know it's listed as a White Metal token but this is Aluminum in my book... might have a touch of Tin tossed in for fun? imageimage
