"Masonic Pennies" are usually made by Royal Arch Mason (R.A.M.) lodges,
which are specialized Freemason lodges.

I have several of them, including this one from Berkeley, California:

Great piece of Masonic history you have recovered. I also have not seen one in person, I have some steel pennies with a Masonic emblem punched into them but that about it. Nice find

Very cool find, IMO way better than any other penny (unless a key date worth thousands) ha lol
I really do love tokens and things like your great find better, could you post two pix of it all cleaned up?
