This looks to be N old token but nothing identifying the year.

Any idea what it is?

Masonic? Something related to THIS?

There is a similar token here:

Baltimore’s German Turners Union & Token

The "E.T.G." on the OP token might be a town.

Or it could be a fencing club token.

It looks to be fencing related. The mask looks good and the pair of blades have saber handles.

Certainly looks to be late 19th century or thereabouts. I like it.

En Garde, Touche!. ? As others have said it is probably a 19th century fencing club token.

Certainly appears to be a fencing club token.... Nice, I would pick that one up if I saw it.....Never belonged to a fencing club, but did take sword fighting lessons for a couple of years. Cheers, RickO
