    Not a coin, but a token or medal of some sort. Others more knowledgeable will soon chime in......

    Welcome to the forum Seneca. Iroquois nation upstate NY?

    It looks like the same token as the one on the end of a wheat roll an ebay seller is sending. Don't remember the link though. Possibly a civil war token?

    Clearer pictures would also help. :) Welcome to CT!

    It looks to me like an early 19th century George III halfpenny or penny depending on the size.

    Oh dear, I appear to be wrong in my assessment. Wouldn't be the first time......:)

    thanks! :)

    Hey guys, thanks for the warm welcome and thanks for the help! I found out its a late 18th early 19th c British trading token. In regards to the bad images, my camera takes very large images and I need to use Photoshop to shrink them, which results in a blur unfortunately.
