Huge pewter token

[sscindercoop]

I found this today it weighs 26.6 grams and I believe its made of pewter. The back looks like it has two guys exchanging something or shaking hands? Thanks for any help.

Start cleaning until more of whatever appears, sufficient to ID. IMHO

Very cool find indeed.
As Iron Patch mentioned. That's as good as it's going to get my friend.
I would think any more cleaning and you may lose the image completely.

The triangle on the back looks like two guys touching spears and they are standing on a line of some sort to make it look like a triangle. Also there is words on the front.

But it might not be at all but think it will be hard to figure out if not!
Only thing I do to pewter is ureathen it I have seen on some of mine that it seem to help see it better but real light with a small paint brush is what I use.

As IP said, its as clean as it will get. Its lost its surface & not built up any crude, what is left is what you got
