Found this about 2 inches under a curb strip in Windsor, Ontario. Any idea what the "16" counterstamp is about?

Hi ezod. I have the same coin with the hole but no stamp. Don’t know why it would be stamped. Congrats on the find.
 

persomalized luggage tag? cool finf im going to need one of those now
 

Fob for a room key? Could be lots of things.
 

I agree with lots of the previous comments. What you have there is an impromptu, frugal, and ersatz fob or check. It could be for tools, it could be for a room key.
