I think the year is 1582

The front is not so clear, I think there is a sun and sea/water 
See pictures

 

If an idea, thanks a lot

Issuer: Spanish Netherlands - (County of Flanders, Belgian States) 

Lettering: AETERNUM MEDITANS DECUS

Translation: Aspiring to eternal glory 

Token collector [1600-1899] with some coins

Thank you very much for the info. 

Indeed if i choose that info, I find coins with a similar reverse side. But I still don't find my exact coin. Do you have an idea of the exact value/valuta, so I can look it up?

Lettering:  FOVET ET DISCVTIT 1582 

Catalogue: Dugniolle #2881 

 

1582 Antwerp. Inauguration of the Duke of Anjou in Antwerp. 

Crowned coat of arms, half French and half Dutch. / 

Sun shines through the clouds on the coast. 

 

 

 

 So - it is a token / jeton.
