Hi, I just had an awesome hunt in St. Jakob Austria which dates to the 1200's. I found this old looking token which has me questioning as to what it is and how old it is. It is the size of an American and weighs 4 grams. Here are the pictures any info would be great, Thanks!

Also in the last picture I am showing where I nicked the edge with the shovel and it looks shiny almost like lead when soldering.











 

Looks pewter, or perhaps lead. Maybe a lead type seal, but not a Token :thumbsup:

Ahh yes makes sense only one side has a stamp. I also found quite the old looking ring I will post up too. Thanks

agreed, looks pewter or pot metal, I think its circa 1900, not too much older, it maybe the top/lid to something, not sure if the sides have broken off.
