I don’t have much information about this coin other than is 1.5 centimetres in diameter

What's the precise weight, is it made un brass or gold ?

It looks like a caduceus

That looks to be it, great spot! I had no idea wether it was a coin or any exonumia. Thank you for your help

Iranian wedding gift tokens are surprisingly common, and to be found even over here, and many different ones exist. I suppose  sadly so many Iranian people had to flee their country and took away such small souvenires.  A new thread about them comes up here a few times every year.

I’ve had this for a few years and just remembered about it, it is very interesting none the less. Thank you for this information, it’s cool to learn new things.

Does anyone know how such a token may have been used? 

Or in general, what exactly is a “wedding token” ?
