It looks more like a lead seal than a coin. It has no reverse or face value. What's its size and weight?

@Crissu, first welcome to CCF. Second that is an interesting piece that you have there. I can pick out some of the inscription, especially on the front (ANSI...), but the uneven lighting and rotated view won't let me read anything else. Maybe you could post new photos that have even light? Also, I agree that knowing the diameter and mass would be helpful.

Here is what I'm looking at:

@Crissu, I can't help until I can read more of the inscription. Please post new photos that have even lighting so that I can make out more of the letters. Thx.

The first word appears to be "ansicht" -- I think this is a medal/medalet and not a coin.
