I found this at an 1890's house in downtown Salt Lake City, no clue what it could be...
thought it might be a boy scout token of some sorts...

Anyone have clue?

Perhaps some kind of Boy Scout token?

The fleur-de-lys seems to be a symbol of theirs, though I cannot find any specific token online like yours....
I don't have any information either, but I have a similar token -

That's what I thought, but I'm not sure about the Maltese cross... I don't think they used that, did they?
and the fleur-de-lys are a bit different then I've seen, and I think it is copper, not positive,

I agree the fleur-de-lys are fatter on your token though.
Wow, that's awesome, so now to wonder, if it is a boy scout token?, why go to the trouble of putting some one's initials on it?.. that would have to be some sort of great honor back then I would think. You Just didn't go down and stamp out a coin real quick... they had a generic badge or trophy/pin of some sorts for certain accomplishments... but not everyone recieved it with their initials on it... hmmmm
