    Did you put a magnet to it? A token ready to be engraved. IMO. Peace Roy

    @Stevetreson One other thing to do is a specific gravity test. Use the Google to locate simple instructions. Pretty easy to confirm if silver and good to know. Suspend the item with thread. Good luck. Peace Roy
    Here's one I've used.

    Just looks like a generic metal round. Metal composition is hard to identify from the picture no Liberty, not real.

    Take it to a jewlry store that uses an XRF machine to see the composition -
