just a gaming token, I have a lot of those. RWM must either be the company who made those tokens or the place those are used. I think its the first because almost all of the gaming places I've gone to in my life have those types of coins.

Your RWM is the Sm/Lg denticle variety. I have about 50 diff. in a binder. Eagle varieties are my main focus, but there's so much more.
These are just in a pile on my desk, all dups.

1st one has GD initials on rev.
2nd one has Sm letters on rev. surrounded by stars
3rd one has Lg. denticle reverse
4th one has a shield w/ Lg. denticle obv. & Lg. letters.
So, you see, start a collection on the cheap. These, like Chuck E. Cheese; have so many varieties, it's dizzying.Always be on the look-out for errors.

Not just "arcade"; these tokens were exported worldwide for use in any machine that took tokens. I acquired a token with this exact same design from the laundry machines in a resort on Tahiti in 1983.
