Can anyone help me ID this coin? Even a country would be great.

It looks more like a token rather than a coin -- maybe a train token?
I'm not too sure on the lettering, could be Greek.

Not Greek; the "backwards R" and "backwards N" are Cyrillic letters; the language is Ukrainian. The four letter word on the back is Ukrainian for "Kiev", the capital city. A token muck like this one is shown on the Wikipedia page for the Kiev Metro.
