I was at a museum yesterday which had an early 1800s french percussion rifle with this silver coin embedded on the stock. Any idea what this is?

I would guess just silver decoration piece
+1. There's nothing on it to suggest a coin--no "portrait", no denomination (no writing of any kind), no date, nothing to indicate issuing entity... Not that any/all of those are required, but a coin will usually have one or more.
