Hi,
It`s Order of Malta coin, late 18th century. No numismatic value when used for coin holder, but nice.

Hi,
This is heraldic combination or marshalling of two coats of arms side by side in one divided heraldic shield to denote a union.
The problem are 9 diamonds compared with twelve in the mark with ``HAF``. Left side is unknown to me.
Take a look here, scroll down:

Can a town bear family coat of arms?
Interesting.
