This isn't a coin or token. It's part of a button, from the guard's uniform of the Great Western Railway in Britain. This UK detector finds website dates this type with the crowned GWR monogram from 1860 to 1876.

SAP!

weird thing is when I first saw it I was thinking it might be a button, I've seen 2 piece buttons like that before.

Had no idea what GWR meant so I didn't want to be the one saying it might be a button, then it turns out to be a game piece or something even weirder
