Sounds like a token

 

This coin is created as a token or commem for the Calgary Stampede, an annual event that is the biggest thing in Western Canada.

I don't know if you have these in the U.S. but here in Canada they are called Trade Dollars and are issued by many communities to commemorate local events. They are very common and thus not too valuable. Here is an example from my own community

 

wow. pretty cool coins or tokens. thanx for the info and pics.
