Who Would Like to Guess What These Two Gold Objects Are?

I have a feeling I have posted about one or more of these previously, but could not find them:

0.thumb.jpg.acb55dff3aa9ea020de18918a0529e0b.jpg

I have learnt to change the filenames, so this, above, is "0"

Please assume this is called "1"

Over to you!

After looking again I think that’s a sovereign, I can see the outline of St.George and the dragon in the first image.

It looks like it’s been struck from the other side so if I’m right, the other side shows the reverse of a sovereign but incuse.

I can see it the more I zoom out. Either that or I need my eyes testing.

@LawrenceChard its got a milled edge, so somebody went to the trouble of doing something to it with the intention of it being something else.

So my guess is a circular saw blade.

No idea. 😆

They have both got milled edges.

Another brilliantly inventive guess!

Two banks stuck together in minting and I bet they have a stamp on the other side of the coins sovereign and a queen's head someone has seperated them 

What, NatWest and RBS?

Assuming that was a typo for "two blanks", almost perfectly correct.

They must have been one on top of the other in striking, but would not have stuck together, and I feel sure that if it required human intervention to separate them, they would have been rejected, althouth there are some TSF members who might disagree with this.

They will have separated naturally.

Excellent forensic work up to a point.

I guess I have to award top marks for the correct answer.

We might have to throw this open to all TSF members to decide whether it counts when you have looked at the answer sheet!
