Found this copper medal(?) last night in the backyard of a friend's
home that was built in the late 1890's. Reverse has no markings at all
and it's about as thick as a dime. Any ideas?

Thanks for looking,

Here is a better pic. It appears to be an early 1900's motorized bicycle watch fob. Very nice find of early American memorabilia.
