A.Repici Token / Gettone

[Marcisharki]

Buona Sera !

I have got a token / gettone from Djibouti.

The name A.Repici sounds very Italian, so I presume it comes from Italian Somalia....

Can somebody help me ?

Grazie

It can't be from Italian Somalia, simply because it's from Djibouti (former French Somalia). Anyway, it could be important to understand the period of minting. In fact, Italy obtained free use of Djbouti port, after France's defeat in WWII.

I found on Google Books some infos about Antonio Repici and Alphonse Repici at Djibouti... maybe you could take a look at this site.
