Unknown coin...

[aquachigger]

I found this coin like object a few days ago. I had it posted up in "Today's Finds" and didn't get any guesses as to what it might be. So here it is... anyone here seen anything like it? I have found quite a few colonial era coins in this area. The first picture has a large cent for scale. The unknown "coin" is quite thin. Thanks...

Most of my unknown coins have turned out to be large buttons, just that where the shank was attached was very hard to discern if there was a mark or not. Usually when they are that size and thin = button. But, something that has to be held and looked at, hard always to say with certainty from a photo.
(I guess it also depends on what you consider thin compared to the large cent)

Looks like a sitting stick figure (See circled area).

It's definitely been struck on both sides. It is thin, but no more than many of the worn coppers I have found. I suppose it could be a button. I have found colonial era coins from several other nations at this site to include; Peru, Brazil , Mexico, France and Spain. Thanks...
