I inherited this coin as well as 3 other similar coins. The coin is about the size of a dime. I tried searching through images of bronze coins on google images but couldn't find a match. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the ID. Any clue on the value?
 

Without doing any research, I'd estimate the value IF it were in very fine condition at between $40 and $50.In its current condition, maybe $20-$30.And if you were to list it for sale, be patient; this coin would not 'fly off the shelf' like a new computer model--IMO
