looks to be latin. but I can’t translate it mostly because I don’t know latin. 🙂
But the first part is at least Sigillvm (sigillum), then it looked like something related to sve at first glance, but it’s most likely a G as the third letter. So I’m making out SVG(P/A)OCV which gives nothing from google.
Image looks like a knights helmet?
I too conclude that this is, old

I dont know if they take questions, but I would guess that Livrustkammaren (a museum) would know more 🙂

Any chance you could take some parchment paper or something and make a rubbing of the object? That might make the text more legible.

I think the object itself is a [jeton](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeton), but I have nothing beyond that
Interesting to find something like that outside of the Nordic countries. Exactly where did you find it?
