YAZOO P

[Spats]

This was found at a ferry site. There were also houses here that were occupied into the mid 20th century. Coins and other relics have been found here dating from early 19th to late 20th century. Civil War relics, mostly Union, have come from this site. The disc is almost as big and almost as thick as a quarter and stamped YAZOO P with the P being slightly larger. It has a raised border and the back is blank. My research has come up empty. Does anyone have any ideas on this?

I wonder if it has anything to do with the The Yazoo & Mississippi Valley Railroad Company P?
