This object was found in my front yard. It reads"Louisville ........? And has a building of A college or court house and under that has "Exposition 1872". The back has something but I can't read it.It is a little bigger than a Quarter. Looks like it's lead or pewter?Thanks for information and for looking.

The Louisville (Industrial) Exposition ran for ten years (1872-1882).
Here's a postcard pic of the facilities:
