This coin was made as dedication to by a group that basically worships Fausto Coppi. There is a team that does a tour in that town, and they apparently loved Coppi. It would date just after 1965. Very nice cycling item.

Yes, Lincoln was known as "Honest Old Abe" back in 1864.
Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?
Yes, I was noticing how mine has 3 cannon balls above the cannons on the reverse and your doesn’t. And yours has berries on one of the branches on the reverse and mine doesn’t. Also, the smoke coming out of the front smokestack is different. There are a bunch more minor differences as well 🤔
@Project Numismatics , that’s a nice one too. I have one like that and a similar one dated 1863 that has 13 stars instead of 12. If you look at the designs I can see several minor differences between mine and yours

I just bought this one at an antique store for .25 cents. I think it has the cool factor going for it.

Hey Token guys - Would something like this be worth getting slabbed? I think it's some type of test token.

Another version. Not quite the eye appeal as @MrSpud or @calgolddiver though:
