I was sure they were not original obans, but thought they might have been later (1900s) bullion pieces. I am sorry that I could not send better scans. I was sure that someone would recognize the markings on the back, by shape if not by faint inscription. Here are enlargements. The gold is still faint, but the silver is not bad. Both state ".999."

It would appear that these two pieces are much later than I had originally thought. To my knowledge none of the early fantasy issues have any markings on them stating their purity. I’m not sure exactly what these are - perhaps these pieces are more along the lines of what Bruce said in that they are advertising pieces, but being 999 fine does not make sense to me as that would have been quite a bit of money just for advertising. Maybe these are museum copies of some sort sold to tourists. At any rate, these are not genuine contemporary pieces and would be grouped together with the fantasy issues.
