It’s a mint token that is part of proof sets from Aruba.

Thanks for the fast answer. Makes sense, since I managed to get hold of Aruba mint sets, but cut into small cartons for each mint....

Anyway, I suppose the jeton has no value as such?

Hello, Sjoelund!

It is a token from a mint set.

​Small correction, it's from a mint set, Aruba doesn't have any proof sets.

I always add them to my swaplist. Some people select them in swaps.
