    My "guess" would be a thoroughly-corroded English Conder token.

    It's not a Conder token.

    kommt lasset uns anbeten translates to "come, let us sing" in German. Maybe @chrisild can help?

    I see "denken" which translates to "thinking" in German...

    Almost - "anbeten" is adore. Those are the first words of the "venite adoremus" refrain in Adeste Fideles, a Christmas carol that in English is called O Come All Ye Faithful. Now whether any of this has anything to do with the depicted piece, I don't know yet. :) Will have another look ...
