Game: Guess Three Islands!

[bart]

When the token is from the British era, it could be a token of the Isle of Filfla...

[Afrasi]

Then it must be made for the new Maltese airport on Filfla.

This Maltese guy has a lot of good photoshop ideas for Malte here: Malta's 'top secret second airport opens on Filfla' - 89.7 Bay

By this you led me to the idea of ​​creating a theme about airports on mysterious islands on coins .. Now I'll do this ..

What is a George Ii piece doing in Malta though?

Napoleon conquered the island in 1798 and controlled it until 1802. During this time, foreign coins, especially those from the UK and Sicily circulated on the island. The countermarks were applied to create legal trade tokens. These tokens are quite rare.
I would like to see other photos of such tokens, but I only have one. Who knows other similar tokens?

[Afrasi]

And what stands IF for?

And what stands IF for?

Why do you read the number as a letter?

[Alex Island]

IF island is in France too, it is known through Montecristo, and there are medals and tokens .. but probably not in this case.

Why do you read it as a number? As far as I know the French at Malta minted coins with the denomination of Tari.

..well, suppose IF is an "island of France" .. And what does the image under it mean - is this known?

Well .. There is such information that we are talking about the island of Gozo:

Now I am nearly convinced, even the c/m Gozo is missing.  ;-)   
I guess the French landed at the North Coast. The coat of arms of Gozo shows three hills, but the coat of arms of Zebbug shows an olive tree. Zebbug is near three naturally harbours at the North Coast.

The counterstamp is IF (the letter I) and not 1F (the number 1). Around 1800 the value of a coin was determined mainly by its metal content. So no way a copper coin, of say 5 centimes, could be given the value of 1 Franc. If this were done this surely would result in a large number of counterfeits.

Very doubtful attribution in my opinion!

[Afrasi]

Yes, you are right. Additionally I forgot the Tari. This was the denomination the French used at Malta stamped on cut silver. Coming to Egypt they used even uniform buttons as small money ...

[Alex Island]

I'm interested in the stamp on the back, read as Gozo:
