Here is a page that discusses these tokens: http://calgoldcoin.com/oldhtml/wreaths.htm
And here is a brief CCF discussion of them: https://goccf.com/t/89901
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Exciting find! Does the weight match what you would expect? (Sorry. Missed the weight on my first glance.)

Nice find!

I have no knowledge on these, but I hope it is authentic.

You could take it to a coin store or if you know of a collector that has one, test it with an XRF to see if it's real gold or not. If it is the correct gold composition then the next question, is it genuine or a counterfeit though made of gold. Someone with experience about these could look at it for their opinion. Nice find!!

I posted the calgold link above for a reason - to allow everyone here to educate themselves.
