Dude--why is the date of this token important to you? It just seems odd to me that a lot of people want dates for tokens when they are seldom dated. It's not like coins where the difference between a 1909 and a 1910 cent can be pretty important. I agree that it is probably an arcade token - and "Le Jeu" is French for "The Game". Quite possibly is from Quebec, but that is just a guess. Arcade tokens generally date in the 1980s, but many were used until the present day.

95%+ of tokens will never have a firm date attributed, a somewhat larger number will have a date range attributed. Most of the time with tokens, people are happy if they can just attribute a city and state to them.
