Given the metal used and the absence of a date, my first thought was that it was a coin weight. But the real thing checks out at 20 mm. diameter, 2.76 g, so I'm struggling. Could it be a toy coin?

Thanks for helping.

I have been looking for similar toy coins and this one has far better details than all the others I have seen. Different metals, etc. A friend also pointed out to me that it could be a pattern, but again I am lost...

Cheers.
