I could be way off....
But it looks like a souvenir token handed out at a medieval faire....
One of those King Richard Renaissance things where they serve giant turkey legs, have jousts, and at least one dirty peasant guy sitting in a tree, picking his nose with a branch.

Not that I've ever been....

It's not first thing it tried. It's either brass or bronze latter more likely.

Just tidying up some blasts from the past (including some very ancient ones), largely for the benefit of anyone searching the site for information.

Red-coat, you have been doing this frequently lately. Standard reverse image tech or do you have some secret?

I do sometimes use reverse-image searches, but mostly I’ve been picking ‘low-hanging fruit’… unidentified or misidentified items that I recognise, or at least have some idea what they are. Many of the images frankly aren’t good enough for reverse-searching to directly obtain an ID. Much of the additional information then comes from my own database and reference library of things in which I’m interested or have researched in the past.

I know that folks like to have ‘proof’ or supporting evidence rather than just an opinion, so where possible, I use reverse-image or standard text searches to help find comparative examples from auction listings or specialist websites once I have some leads on what an item might be.
