Religous Coin?-DeMolay?

[Diggin-N-Dumps]

I Recently Found this Token/Coin...I tried to do a little research, but wasnt able to find anything..

I know its some sort of Religous Coin..About the Size of a Half Dollar

The Back of the Coin Reads " Chapter Order DeMolay"

It appears to have a place on the back that would be Engraved Im guessing


Any info on this would be Great..Just trying to place a date on this to know if my spot is worth hitting again

Thanks

Looks like someone shot it with a BB gun.

It is not a DeMolay Degree of Chevalier medal, they are more ornate and are oval.

It is a DeMolay membership token.
Sometimes members have their names and chapters inscribed on them.
They were used during the 1930's and 1940's and are similar to "Masonic Pennies".
