Looks like a key chain Fob to me c.1960's.
FYI - be aware: there are a lot of fake Hudson Bay items out there.

Going through my old coin site files, I found this. It only has to do with HBC because of the pelt tokens, not this actual SOP thread, which I also think of as a watch fob. This list of what a pelt ( or 1/4 or 1/2 pelt) would buy 1n the 1770's is interesting:
