Looks like a wax seal with a hole for a neck string or necklace...

It's a wax seal matrix but no idea on age. Victorian?

The first replys to this post were truly correct. And it looks very old to me.
Looks to be made of bronze... date wise I'd say late Georgian Period c.1800. 
Nice find, but I think liked it better when it still had the verdigris on it.

It is a signet. (a wax seal)
It is colonial.
It is a signature for the authority of the British crown.
Suggesting that it may have belonged to a military officer or a colonial governor.
That would be my guess.
With the CR initials, it may be possible to connect it to a historical figure in the area in which it was found
