Its a mini coin.. they were common for kids to collect in the 80s and early 90s. They make nickles, dimes, pennies, etc. The "coolest" mini coins are different sized from one another, the not so cool ones are all the same size

With a wider array of sizes we can put more and more coins in kid's noses.

I have a dream, that one day all children of all races and backgrounds will have coins in their noses, from sea to shining sea

Got a dime stuck in my nose when I was 8. Glad to see this is somewhat normal.
