Help identifying this !

#1 Unread post by Level »

Hello,
I found what I think is a coin one week ago,and I don't know for sure from where it belongs or what can it be.
It has about 2,4 cm (0,94 inches) diameter,but I can't weight it becouse I don't have a scale with low numbers.
Another thing I can say about it,after some tests it revealed that is made from silver.
Here are some photos:

Please,help me with this,I really want to discover what is it,I don't want to know the value becouse I will keep it,I just want to know some information about it.

P.S: Sorry for my language mistakes :)

Need a couple clues here...

1. How did you determine it is silver?
2. Where did you find it (Town, Country)?
Civil War Tokens
Morgan Dollars
Ancient Coins

1. Well i have a friend who worked at a pawn shop and he had some nitric acid I think,he tested it and said that it can be all silver or just silver plated,then I tested it with a magnet.
2. I found it in Romania.

It's a privately minted fantasy token and might be plated in silver.
