I've had this coin for years and just recently dug it up again. I've never been able to find any information on this coin. All I know is what you can see in the pictures, and the 'day' dial on the flip side actually rotates. I'd really like to know more about it. Any help is appreciated.

If you keep old reference material around (as I tend to do), there is an article on Calendar Tokens in the Feb 1956 (yes, 1956) issue of "The Numismatist". I have a copy.
