This is a good one. It is a jetton manufactured by the Kuchkin factory in Moscow, and comes from the "Temporary Government" period of Feb 1917-Oct 1917. This one, and a related one with a warrior slaying the dragon (attached), are considered by collectors to be "jettons with medal status." Most likely, they were not sold--one popular theory was that they were given to troops departing to the front. I'd love to own one of these myself, enjoy it!
