If you can tell us weight, diameter, and whether it's magnetic, that will be more helpful. From what I can tell in these photos, it resembles a Japanese arcade / pachinko token as much as anything.

Not magnetic and diameter is about 24.40mm, thickness is 1.75mm and I'm not sure of the weight exactly but I would say close to a quarter.. I dont have a small enough scale sorry.

It has nothing to do with Apple Inc. (maker of iPads, iPhones etc); the logo for that Apple company has always been the familiar bitten-apple design as you see it now, and the famous Apple company has never, to my knowledge, produced slot machines or similar items that would need such tokens. This is for another company calling itself "Apple".

My best guess, judging by the appearance, is a Japanese "pachinko" token.

Which becomes a minor plot point in one of science fiction author Diane Duane's So You Want to be a Wizard young-adult novels!

Oldies like myself can remember the Apple II clones that had various fruity names.
