It looks Brit to me; maybe some of our gang from across the big pond will chime in on this one. Nice find, Breezie

I just googled around and I think it looks close to the coat of arms of Spain -

Someone else found one

And now I see the initials "VB" in in the crown (above the crest) of Bramblefind's referenced token

 

[T Hunter]

Thanks for all your help . So this is a token ?

 

[Mackaydon]

No doubt to me--a token, yes.

Thanks for all the help Any age ideas.

 

[Mackaydon]

Modern: Could be a c.1965 car wash token as one onliner described in Bramblefind's reference with the same VB initial and crest.

Sorry its a modern general purpose token. Green check time. http://www.tokensdirect.com/standard_designs.pdf
