A friend of mine has had this coin fro some time and has not been able identified it. It is silver, about the diameter of a US nickel, 1.2 grams, and super thin. Please help with ID.
Sorry for the poor I-phone pics. The color is way off. The coin is silver.

What I wonder: how does such a coin get in the US?
