This silver coin that feels like nickel has the #2 on one side and some sort of unidentified writing on the other. Not sure if it's a coin or a token. Help.

Please post a clearer/larger picture and one of the other side as well.
Can barely make out that there is some writing on the coin (which could be Arabic but not sure).

Looks to be a Japanese pachinko style arcade token. From the fuzzy pic's

Still not very clear, but clear enough to see that it is not Arabic. Not sure but it could be some style of East Asian writing.
Your piece is definitely not a coin but rather some sort of token.

The writing is Japanese. I think it might be an arcade token.

Agree with the above - Japanese pachinko token
