My money is on Pachinko token, the Japanese equivalent of pinball with some "slots machine" elements.

The top says "ichi roku" or "1 6" if that helps and the character in the middle is 'Kin(iro)" or gold. The bottom characters say "Ichi Roku Shoji" or the "One Six Trading Company". Ichi Roku Shoji pops up on google search with the 16 Co Ltd/MGM Company in Japan, which is a stock trading company based out of Tokyo and was established in 1975.

Good luck!
