My first impression seeing that picture was that it might be the obverse of a notgeld coin, ie allow from iron and tin or similar.

More information needed '0xDA71D', picture of the other side and dimensions. But as said, from my first look I doubt it has any (substantial) amount of silver in it.

It looks like iron or possibly zinc in the pictures. If it is Iron, a magnet will stick to it.

I do not know of any coins that are an alloy of iron and silver.....

How can you tell its iron content, Susuman? Thanks.

I don't have this coin in-hand

if it is iron it will be magnetic, so just get a magnet and try to stick it to the medal
