The image provided is a Masonic Royal Arch Chapter shekel or mark penny token, not an ancient historical coin. The design is based on the ancient Jewish silver shekel, but the lettering style and presence of Roman numerals suggest it is a modern Masonic token.
Masonic Token Details
Function: Masonic chapters issue these tokens, often called "mark pennies," to members of the Mark Master Mason degree. Each chapter traditionally has a unique design.
Design Inspiration: The reverse design (visible in your image) features an omer cup and a willow branch, with Hebrew script that translates to "Shekel of Israel". This imitates the coinage minted during the First Jewish-Roman War (66–70 CE).
Michigan Chapters: Several chapters in Michigan, including King Cyrus No. 133 and Composite Chapter No. 178 in Detroit, and Sturgis Chapter #26, have issued similar shekel tokens. The specific chapter name is likely on the other side of your token. It’s Mason, MI chapter this was my grandpas. Smoke free
