And what's the pattern in the centre?

SC75, it says REMEMBRANCE OF FIRST COMMUNION, and has two angels holding something (maybe a goats head on the left near the angel)

other side has no text, shows people and columns I recon.

 

[B5MECH]

Ooo it's the medal they give you at your first communion I thought you found this

I wonder if we could hammer shape it into one ]

Maybe there will be some good seed from a nice tasting paw paw when those ones of mine grow big and ripen treasureman, I'll be able to send you some if you want then.
