Weird, That has never happened to me. I've been here over a year.

It appears to be a token showing an equestrian Louis XIV (king of France) on the front (the second image). The legend around this side reads something like LUD XIIII D G FR ET NA REX.

Possibly it is a "counting token" as the reverse does not look to me like any of the emblems used by royal France at this time.

These were often made in brass.

here!

First picture at 9 o'clock, I see HANS LAVFER
Hans Laufer was one of the Nuremberg jeton makers

http://www.ukdfd.co.uk/pages/nuremberg-jetons.html
Hans I (son of Wolf I): issuing jetons 1607, master 1611, died 1632
Hans II (son of Cornelius): master 1686, left Nuremberg 1716
Hans Paulus (son of Cornelius): master 1697, died 1712
So yours is from 1607-1632 or 1686-1716
I guess for Hans II

With the dimensions, it could be easier to identify

Hans Laufer (First) / Louis XIII Nuremberg jeton, good information above from Petrus and tdziemia as usual :)

If you can only see partial inscriptions, a few of the more commonly encountered masters:

HANS / HANNS (with 1 or 2 N's) KRAUWINCKEL

HANS (with 1 N) LAUFER/LAVFER (the subject on the other side can be used to figure out which one!)

WOLF LAVFFER/LAUFFER/LAUFER

C / CHR (Christian) LAUER, mostly 19th c. medals/medalets

IIL / IL = Johann Jacob Lauer

ICR, JCR, R = Johannes Christian Reich
