A couple of badges I bought recently, I've seen refered to as JETTONs. Where does this word come from and what does it mean? What's the history behind this type of award. The two I have are both engraved with the person's name. Were these every awared with documents or the like? Anyone care to share some examples with the forum?

Kind Regards,
Shane Cook.
