Czechoslovakian coin or token

I have this coin here



it has no year and no text on it, but the lion that looks much similar to the Czechoslovakian lion,
but the tail is a bit different.

is it a coin or a token?

It's a token for sure, but it doesn't look to have anything in common with Czechoslovakia.

some sort of game token???

Agree with the first part: it is a token!
I would not throw away the option of the observe being a variation of the Bohemian [Czech] Lion, as the pawn, way of stand and the facial issues do resemble that. The tail is surely not double, but it is NOT always double-tail, as it is only an artistic expression, so... honestly I don't know, but it is exciting.
I would check war and emergency coinage of Bohemian [Czech] cities/companies/hotels/pubs/breweries around 1917-1919, surely it is before the time that the concept of Czechoslovakia was born.
The entire artistic style is more of an emergency coinage of the WWI, than a game token. (also the number 6 is more for a "6 heller" than a game thing...)

For about 1000% sure it has nothing to do with Slovakia, if that limits the options

I am really curious, good luck for the quest!

BTW, what is the metal? Zinc?

I don't know, James, but trying to help

The token is brass. I have a similar one (on the scan). Its weight is 4,4 g and diameter - 21,5 mm. On a Russian token site I read that it is a Lowenbrau beer token, but I am not sure since could not confirm this anywhere else.

I have one, too. I would also like to know where this coat check token is from.  

After some research I can tell you now that it is or was a gambling token at the Prater in Vienna.

description of menzel 27090 says:
lion upright with a 6
without year

1     6      copper, 21,5mm        €3,-
2     6      brass  , 21,5mm        €3,-

menzel 27091 would be
lion upright with a 6/2
without year

1     6/2    nickel , 21,5mm      €3,-

Note: used at the Prater (Vienna)

So it seems to be not that rare.

Much appreciated!
