The token is a bit of a conundrum. Lots of Gormans in Schenectady; not as many O'gormans that I can find--not even on the searchable Schenectady Historical Society page.

Others may have better resources...

Trade tokens such as this were made throughout most of the 19th & early 20th centuries. My SWAG* (from its size, material, denomination, strike) is that this one is late (post Civil War) 19th C. BICBW.
