Can anyone ID this token?

[Deerhunter24]

This token-type coin was found at an old fairgrounds last summer. Found in Michigan. The fair dates to pre-1900, but the town dates back to the 1860's or earlier. I'm sure its not that old, but definately appears much older than your standard carnival token.

The only thing I see that might help someone else ID this is 'V' and 'B' (or maybe V.O.B.) in the top of the crown on the lower photo. As well the crown style looks English so it might be Canadian. Good luck!

I would agree here with BCH, probably a token given a kid at the fair for some game!

Nice site BCH! The #0471 looks like a match for the one sandcreek posted that was mashed by a train. I prolly have about 6 different tokens from that site. Wow!

I just realized Tokensdirect is advertised as the oldest token manufacturer in the world! http://www.tokensdirect.com/
...so I dont know how old it is but I know they still make this pattern today.
