I was wondering if someone can help identify this coin or token,  I believe it's Japanese,  it is not magnetic,  same diameter as an old British penny from 1912, almost the same thickness,  but weighs less,  1912 penny is listed as 9.4 grams,  1880s penny is listed at 8.8g,  this is 8.35g.

One tip, Japanese dragons are usually depicted with only 3 claws.
