I have what looks like a very old kind of coin but I cant really find any identifying marks that will tell me where its from. I was hoping if I post some pictures I can maybe identify what it is if anything special at all. THANKS!

Similar to this modern promotional piece, with an identical obverse but different reverse legend: http://goccf.com/t/159454

Actually saw these being sold on the climb to the top a few years ago. Asking price started at $100. Great stories about which grandfather or uncle found them in a clay container 60-70 years prior.

It drove them nuts when I told them I wanted to buy the clay container
