 More likely a token. 

Is the other side the same? 

What is the diameter? 

I cropped and rotated the picture but the Exonumia search did not find anything.

Hi.

For sure, this token is not arabic !

It looks like a Japanese game token.

Yes it is a Japanese slot parlor token. 

The first line in katakana , パーラー , is the English word ‘parlor’.
ぷらは seems to say ‘Prague’.
