this was found in Menominee, MI. It is slightly larger than a quarter and appears to be made of brass as there is no corrosion. It is stamped the same on both sides. What is it?

Bumping so this doesn't get lost

Looks like a late 1800s or early 1900s city dog license tag but since there isn't a hole to fit on a ring not quite sure. Imo.

There's no way if it were brass and that old it would be in that good of shape I think it's a lot more modern and it looks like a brass tag from a mine something that would be in the brass Shack each individual miner would have one I don't understand why theres no hole punched in it..but maybe they didn't hand theirs.

This is a guess from a distant memory and may be considered an avenue for research.

Stock auction token

lot 4 animal #25.....would be distributed during field auction and redeemed at payment time for animal(horse etc.)It is very cool for sure.
