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.
