[QUOTE="kaparthy, post: 3657676, member: 57463"]In my professional (ahem) opinion, it is a 1-penny token from the United Kingdom. That much is certain. I have some not at all like this one but in the same general family, the way that maybe horses and giraffes are. Probably from a workers' cooperative of some kind.
