Can anyone take a guess at what this holed copper coin might be?

The coin is 31mm in diameter and is thinner, perhaps due to its age, than a KG III half penny and a US large cent.

It is misshapen but does not appear to have been hit by plows, etc.


Thanks to all in advance,
MetallörgY

Turns out this is an Auctori Plebis token (1787).

Sorry no one had any guesses.
I don't have any knowledge of early coppers or tokens.
Very cool find... wish it was in better shape as I'm sure you do as well.
But I did find these pics for reference.
