I picked this up in the museum gift shop on my way through Roswell, NM.  I'm just curious if anyone might know where it was made and maybe what it's made from?  

So far I've determined that it's 38mm and 420 Grains.

Somebody at the museum gift shop ordered them. If you  email them they should be able to tell you where they get the tokens made.

420 grains? do you have a scale that reads in grains or is it marked?

Most digital scales do I think but why?

My scale reads both grains/grams,  I had mistakenly it set to grains when I noticed it was 420,

Almost no one uses grains or even know how much a grain is. 15.43 grains = 1 gram. So 420 = 27.21 grams.

If the medal were marked in grains on the edge (as Franklin mint used to do), that would be a clue to its maker.

But never mind. 🤐
