    It's an overstrike over something mexican. I see the "eagle on cactus" and what is left of "Mexicanos"

    Possibly overstruck Revolutionary coinage from the 1910 Mexican Revolution.

    Note the 'Mexicanos'. Most revolutionary issuers used Republica Mexicana' and not 'Estados Unidos Mexicanos'.

    It weighs 2g & I will have to measure the diameter. I sure appreciate the help you guys have provided.

    It's a wedding memento token. Depiction is a bride and groom walking into a church, on reverse you can partially make out "recuerdo matrimonial". Judging by weight it's struck over a 10 centavo from the early part of the 1900's.

    Highly enthusiastic about world coins, contemporary circulating counterfeits and unusual stuff <3

    WCD nailed it. A wedding memento. Who'd a thunk. Peace Roy
