Hey there,

I dug this copper disc the other day, it's got the bust of a man facing left on one side, and some other stuff on the other. It has an X carved into each side. I've heard about soldiers melting down their bullets and carving numerals into them to create poker chips. Is that what this is? Does the coin/token itself look familiar to any of you? I don't know anything about these kinds of things. I'd appreciate any info!

Thanks!
