Please see attached pictures.
Are any of you familiar with this type of coin?
I can't find it in any common catalog. I paid $30 for it because it looks cool, but I don't know anything about it.
It looks as it is made in brass, and the diameter is 22 mm.

They're quite interesting and there are quite a few varieties. It would have been originally gilt, gold plated.
