About the size of a large cent in both diameter and thickness. (28mm)

Looks like a counterstamp, but it also looks like the letters are backwards.

Hi - my first thought when I saw it was a 1806 -1807 George III halfpenny and when I flipped your first image some of the features do seem to match up. The size is right too.

The "counterstamp" is interesting. It may be some kind of impression made with another coin or token since as you said it does look to be in reverse.

WoW.. That is a seriously nice ID Bramblefind! :notworthy: Thank you very much! The stamping appears to be identical on both sides of the coin.
