I'm no expert, but it looks like a well-worn coin that has been cleaned for some reason.

IMO, this is a pocket piece. Perhaps, it was someone's birth year, graduation, wedding, etc. The person carried this pocket piece for good luck and from constant rubbing, the details were worn smooth.

Piratess gave you a very good answer on your OTHER thread on this very same coin.

Personal note: Starting more than one thread on the same item serves only to spread replies over several threads, which can easily confuse some members. Plus it clutters the board. Mods, can you please combine the two threads on this item, thus consolidating all replies to a single thread.

Glad it is time for coffee.
