    try a google search for the names on the coin: blucher, wellington, loos.
    read up as there is significant history here.
    Look for images online of better example of your piece.
    let us know what you find.
    btw, this one looks like it was used as a pocket piece for a long time.

    Does that date say 2008? If so, how the hell did it get so worn? Did someone purposely do it?? Or does it say 1008? If so then damn, that's old.

    Neither. Image from the link above, obverse bottom "Loos" and reverse bottom "1815":
