Hello Numista friends,

I recently bought the coin as displayed in the image. I know that it is from czechoslowakia but i was wondering if it's gold? Any other info is welcome ofcourse.

thanks in advance,
Xerocomis

I have quickly scrolled through my 20th century Krause DVD and can find nothing that looks like it. Can you upload a picture of the other side and provide details on diameter and weight.

The reverse refers to the Wallenstein Palace in Prague so I would guess it's a commemorative connected with thr building or it's role as the seat of government.

Non illegitimis carborundum est. Excellent advice for all coins.

I saw that as well, Phil, and I've been searching under Wallenstein Palace but couldn't find any reference to coins. Since there is no date or denomination, we have to assume it is a token or medal of some kind.
