    I always seem to gravitate to these older souvenir pieces. This one was made by a company that starts with "Schwaa..." from Milwaukee. Mark is only half stamped. The graphics are really nice!

      Schwaab S. & S. Co."-- the two "S" are for Stamp and Seal.

      They made badges, medals and fobs among other items. They are very familiar to Civil War collectors and many of the veteran reunion items were made by this company.

      I believe they are still around today.

      I own a charter day celebration NY May, 1898 souvenir medal shaped exactly like this but missing the upper hooked on bar, so Schwaab was producing this stuff in 1898
