There is no date on this coin/token and I wondered if it could be a Notgeld.

It may be a transportation token, but it is surely not Notgeld ..

It's a transportation token from Goteborg in Sweden (not Stockholm). It was in use at the steamers in Goteborgs harbor. Mainly for transport over the river that divides the city. The boats of Goteborgs Nya ångslupsaktiebolag were in use from 1897 to 1970. This token is for 5 ore and I would guess 1950's.
