I have no idea where i ever picked it up some 40 years or more ago
Btw...the weight is 33 grams and same diameter as a us dollar
Novelty piece. Not a real coin
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.http://www.johnbetts-fineminerals.com/jhbnyc/articles/specific_gravity.htm
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 -
