Looks like an old Canadian coin, early 1800's maybe. Nice finds!

I was thinking upper bank of Canada token.... or a military matching coin.
Thank you all for the help - these 2 were found on the same day within a couple hundred feet of each other and have stumped me since.
The seal is definitely lead and on the one side says "T H E S ..." and "LIMITED" there are clover leaf patterns at the bottom (somewhat like card symbols)
The other side has plenty of writing but it is pretty tough to make out - there is a date or serial number at the top - 4 digits..
under it you can make out some words that look like " - corporate seal - distributed (or captured) by ....union"
The "coin" or token is a standing figure on the from with a date under it - but I cant make it out - the back has a centered oval with 2 guns/cannons crossed in front - cannot make out the writing around the oval though...it is copper and much larger than a US large cent.
Any more help would be greatly appreciated - thanks again!
