    In case this is helpful, I made it a bit lighter (I was thinking there was a cross there, but now I think it's a fence)... temp01.jpg

    @Scott1989 If you photograph it on a black/dark background, it's likely your camera will do a better job with the details.

    Agree with token. Base metal probably spelter, plated with something. Looks like each side was cast then two sides joined back-to-back. ??

    Do you think the edge seam is from a mold or from two halves joined?

    Because all I think about are buttons glued together.

    (edit: or what @springfld.arsenal said :hilarious:)

    I started out thinking it was an "R" but landed on "decoration"...

    Google suggest I don't understand what the word "token" encompasses... I was thinking they had to be flat. :bored:

    Hmmmm....interesting point, but am still leaning towards decoration as it goes so far equally in both directions at the top.....IMHO!!!!
