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 the 1986 platinum Noble coin set. |
