My first thought: replica
Svenning is in Norway.Your token suggests that Francis Fellder was from Svenning.
Small tokens like yours were used back in the day when there was a shortage of authorized coinage. Local shops, etc. would exchange tokens in lieu of having real coins. Trust and barter kept the system working.
