stadt mailand is German for "city Milan", I'm pretty confident is Milan Italy
unless there is a Milan in Germany also ? I'm terrible at geography
beyond the Tri County area here

& With the center initials.... not a coin

I'm going to guess bar token
& probably WW2 era also

right on the milan city, think its years earlier than WW2, its a pretty old style 5 and the stars look to be 6 pointed
