Jeton médiéval de Tournai

Here is a token /counter who was sold by the counters makers of Tournai.
The engravers didn't always know to write and read, that'is why we can find weird or fantasy names.

On the obverse : AVE MARA AVE MARVA the arms of France.
On the reverse : N B .... a shield with a lily in the center of a cross.

Jeton banal de Tournai, de nombreux artisans graveurs ne savaient pas lire , et la légende traditionnelle reprenant la prière de l'Avé Maria est souvent déformée.
