Not a coin.
Not very valuable.

It looks to me to be a brass military WWl or WWll US ARMY collar insignia.
The screw post and nut are gone.

Although, these usually have periods after the U.S. so I am thinking more like WWl. I bet it is about the size of or a tad larger than a US Quarter.

Guys , I had a look at this one WWl collar device , its very similar but if you notice the WWl from ebay has a kind of snakeskin embossed background where as the one I'm researching is plain and flat ?
Any thoughts on that ?

Wheezy , ill post pics of the dime

I think you'll find there are many variations of hardware when it comes to that stuff.
