I'd say it is a game counter or "Spiel Marke".

Default 1892 Columbian Expo

This small white-metal (Lead) token is from the 1892-3 Chicago Columbian Exposition, and depicts Columbus. It is relatively common. As W-M/Lead, it wears rapidly AND was not struck up well, thus the poor definition of the reverse. I've seen dozens, none in high grade. It is listed in the Eglit book on Columbiana.
