I've just come across this while sorting through a job lot of coins. Can anyone offer any suggestions? My best guess would be late medieval French jetton but to be honest I have no idea.

Closest I see, although clearly not a match, is here: https://www.numisbids.com/n.php?p=l...648&lot=1797

Your pic is tiny, making it very difficult to see the details, but I see enough to wonder if there might be a "GETTES" on the reverse(?) of yours, like the linked jeton. Maybe same issuer?

@FJ, I agree that better pics would help. When I crop, enhance, and blow up yours, this is what I get:

Hi Bob

That would seem to be a match with what I can see. Thank-you very much!
