Nice Find! they are some type of commemorative metal, not sure if the us mint struck it or a private minting company.

Nice token. I believe Shell gas stations or one of the gas station chains gave these out when buying X amount of gas at one time (back in the 1960s I believe) - it was a series of presidential tokens as part of a promotional deal.. I have found a few different pieces over the yrs. Lincoln, Roosevelt, and a few I don't remember at the moment!

Cool find!

Nice coin, I agree with Lonewolfe. There was a gas station in the early 90s that gave a presidential commemorative coin with a minimum gas purchase. HH Art...
