It is a little over one inch in diameter. On the obverse there are 5 stars to the left of the soldier and 7 stars to the right. Appears to be wearing a Roman? helmet.I would guess by the patina that it is 50-100 years old. The reverse has what appears to be a weapon type ax. The edges are smooth. No discernible dates or writing. Any guesses?

Based on the fasces symbol in the top picture, could be of Swiss, French or Italian origin. My guess is Swiss.

May be a token of some kind. Not familiar with any coin like that within the past 100 years.
