Hello All,
Has anyone seen anything like this? Looks like a heraldic lion or griffin's head with long crossed ribbons, trident, or similar. There is writing around the entire edge but I can't decipher it. On the reverse there is writing reading left to right, looks like multiple lines. I can't read it so not worth a photo of the reverse even with a closeup. I'm leaning towards token rather than holed coin. Size can be seen in the photo in mm. (ever so slightly larger than a quarter).
Hope someone can help. Site dates from 1870-1910 but we have found earlier items, including a capped bust half dime and an 1840s seated coin.
Best Wishes,
Buck
