Very interesting, never seen another token look quite like that, the ones I know of all have the raised area cut out. Can you tell what material it is made out of? Looks like plastic or nylon almost.

Nice transportation token! It's either Atwood-Coffee HI 240 C or Atwood-Coffee HI 240 D. See tokencatalog.com
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

I think MC Escher took those photos then Bobby!

It was the different background under the coin vs. around the coin that threw me off.

Yeah, I had it sitting on top of a small plastic vial. Didn't realize it would make some people crazy.

Hey now some of us don't need your help we're already there mostly!

So what is the material? Aluminum, tin, white metal?

It's some kind of white metal, very small and super light.
