It's a real token made in the mid-1900s.

Given the style of the die work, there is no way that that piece was minted in 1789. As another poster wrote, the piece as look of the mid 19th century.

Do you mean as opposed to a figment of your imagination? In that case, yes it's real.

I think it looks brand new from the picture (or at least a lot newer than the 18th century)

Has the look of a gasoline station giveaway from the 60'-70's.

It IS real in the existential sense, yes. You made me chuckle out loud.

Never mind these guys, it seems to be a commemorative MEDAL, worth maybe 5-10 dollars.

Agree. Little or no value.

I did learn something from this thread. I had never heard the term "American Fabius" before. Some interesting reading.
