I found this metal several years ago.. It was 2 inches down. I was really suprised when the cloth came out with it..I think its made of aluminum. It's a little bigger then a dime.. Any guesses as to what it is for?
The top says VOOR The right says (Looks Like) BELEID The left says MO? The bottom says TROUW
The back says MIL ORDER OF
WIL AM ED or EO
Thanks Bob

It's the Military Order of William, the oldest and highest honor of the Kingdom of The Netherlands— or, in this case, a replica evidently made for the collecting or novelty market.
IT WAS FOUND IN THE PICNIC GROVE BACK IN 1987 OR 88
I HAVE LOT OF OLD COINS FROM THERE 1821 BEING THE OLDEST AND A LOT OF PICNICS BACK IN THE LATE 30'S THRU THE 50'S
