Thomas Jefferson token/coin?

[Tim Williams]

Does anyone know anything about this coin. It looked to be silver plated at one time.

Dates on the front are 1743-1806.

Not sure about the 1743...


It says on the back.
1802-1809
democrat
born in virginia
author of declaration
of independence

thanks,

Tim

What does it say on the bottom of the back? It looks like Charms______. I can't read past the word charms.

I missed the 1 and hit 2! Thanks for the info on the coin. I found it about 15 years ago and never looked into it.
