    It appears to be a coin made by the company while they had a facility in Cuba back in the 1930's. The coin does not have a date on it. I am attaching pictures of the front/back. My dad (who is from Cuba) has had this coin for years and we are curious to know more about it. The coin has been in the box that it appears to have been distributed in and seems to be in perfect condition. Any information would be greatly appreciated!

    This is not a coin but a medal. As a rule coins are issue
    by a government and almost always carry a value and a date. Your medal was apparently made as an advertising mode of the Nickle Company to present to
    friend, customers, visitors etc., or as a sample of their product
