I have no idea what this coin token is. The original description says is Vietnamese, not sure about it. Can someone help?

@soy, first welcome to CCF. Second, I'm going to move this over to the ancients section of CCF so that we can get some better eyes on it.

Genuine.
Burma: Eastern Toks of Nam, 40 Tamlung, (4 Baht weight) about 55 grams. Slightly dished shape.
Michener 2803 or similar, period 1615-1768.

Nominally silver, but in fact the only silver in it is a small bead of silver poured over the copper or bronze core onto some egg yolk, which is obvious to see in the 2nd picture.
Value around $40.

One of the more interesting and unusual coins posted here in the CCF.
