The back side what ground smooth and then counterstamped. This was common practice during the day when merchants needed to stamp advertising or other trade check onto coins/tokens. You see this on love tokens as well.

Thank you for the quick reply!
And also for the nice greeting :-))

I also wanted to know if this adds to the value of the token or not?

Thanks, Avi.

Original authentic and in good condition is what collectors are looking for, keep in mind anyone could sand off one side and counter stamp it. So I believe it would de-value the coin in this case.

Here's a link to prices on ebay
