Colonial Pendant?

Dug this at a colonial site. It's a little smaller than a nickel and looks to have 13 stars on it. Pics are front and back. Any Help please

It's Queen Victoria so you're looking at a time frame of late 1830s to the turn of the century. Hard to tell if it was holed or made that way.

Looks a lot like the Newfoundland 2 dollar gold coin 1882.

Based on the way that the line sound the rim cleanly stops before and after the hole and the second line goes around the hole, I would think that it was made that way.

Any idea what this is? Part of a bracelet or necklace? I think it was holed after cleaning it up and looking at it but I may be wrong.

I suspect it's from a Jubilee medal. Either 1887 or 1897. I didn't see one exactly like yours but there are dozens of types.

It seems earlier to me but I may be wrong. Any significance to the 13 stars?

Looks very old, What is it made of?

 

[Gregg3131]

I think it's brass.

There appears to be one in this search, but I can't access the details: queen victoria 3d face stars token coin hole - Google Search
But the looks of it reminds me of the charms from a belly dancer ... And I hope that's not it.
