It's a political campaign token. McClellan was the Democrat presidential candidate in 1864.

All the Pres.Tokens I have seen are all facing the other way and the back is different..

It appears to be the variety listed as No. GMcC 1864-25 in American Political Badges and Medalets, 1789-1892 by Edmund B. Sullivan.

In the 70's I was trained at Ft. McClelland in Anniston, AL as a military police. I went on to Germany as physical security at a nike-hercules nuclear missle base. We are affectionately known as "tower rats"
