Token with gallant scene representation

Presumably object of adornment, even though its true destination is still unknown, this small token precious lapis lazuli takes the form of a thick disk, drilled laterally, and bears a relief carved decoration on both sides. The edge is decorated with two twists to three threads, the ends of the perforation, where there are still the remains of a rod or a corroded copper wire.
