    Token, probably from a slot machine.

    I would agree with Amos, most likely a token of some sort. Worth a quarter in a store but not worth legal tender.

    Can you describe the hallmark or post a pic of it, Slewis? Is the other side blank?

    Your camera (phone?) is focusing on the table top, not the edge marking -- try backing away from the token a little bit?

    Looks like damage rather than a hallmark but it's a pretty cool token

    'No Quarter' is a phrase meaning the refusal to give clemency or mercy.
