chipjones Pillar of the Community United States 819 Posts	Posted 12/14/2017 5:29 pm Sorry I should have put that in the first post. It weighs 2.7 grams and is the same size as a dime. Sorry I don't have a caliper. And it's non magnetic. Report this Post to the Staff

There were no 1702-dated coins with an obverse date, stars and a bust facing left that I could find; the only thing even close were certain 1792 US patterns but they lacked the stars. It might also be some sort of spielmarke / gaming counter.

It was moved to the Identification forum for a bit and now this seems to indicate it is indeed exonumia... Quote: Fantasy piece. Looks like a button cover, or jeweler's imitation of a coin motif.
