I've bought "a token" but it looks like part of the coin I found here.

My guess is someone with engineering skills and equipment has scraped away most of
the reverse, but still left the edge intact. They then pierced it at the top to make into a pendant.

looks like you are right. I found some "Machined off" examples.
