    LDSCDTDLPHDSADE = loge De St. Charles Du Triomphe De La Parfaite harmony De Saint Alexandre d'Écosse.

    Or so says, "Muenzenfreund", here. He or she seems to be of the opinion that it is a French jeton. I can't actually see the pictures that were posted in that forum, but it does sound as though they might be discussing a similar piece. (What, after all, are the odds of that mile-long abbreviation coming up in some other context? It only brought two hits on Google.)

    LUMEN DE LUMINE, is, I believe, "Light of Lights".

    The denticulation and style of engraving does look to be late 18th to mid-19th century- somewhere around the eras of Conder tokens or Hard Times Tokens.

    QUAERITE ET INVENIETIS = "seek and ye shall find" (roughly).
