The coin reads, "Et In Aeternum Non Peccabis" which perhaps means, "And Avoiding and Conquering Sin?" Looks like an hourglass on the obverse. Perhaps it is a token? 25 mm, thin. Thanks for any help.

I believe the latin phrase is "for eternity you will not sin"

The entire phrase on the obverse appears to be "considera noviss et in aeternum non peccabis." The reverse of the coin seems to be "hennin_ schlu ter f.b.mm z.z" Can anyone tell me whether this is a coin, a medallion, or anything else? Any guidance would be appreciated. Thank you.

Found it. It's a "death's head" jeton - a "jeton" is a form of token, used on a counting board, a device kind of like an abacus - made in the German city of Zellerfeld by the token-maker Henning Schulter. Example on WorthPoint.
