Medals are a form of "exonumia" - objects related to coinage but not coins themselves. Such are, for example, the medals included in some coin sets, or promotional and commemorative pieces using coin-like formats. They do not have any "face value" and are not tokens either, but can still be of interest to coin collectors.
This medal was included in a special set marking the 10th anniversary of the Angel bullion range, and its transition from one reverse design to another. |
