    It appears to be a 1562 milled 6d of Elizabeth I but the photo and my expertise are both too poor to allow saying whether it is real. I see enough detail that would suggest a $200-300 coin if real but you need to show it to someone knowledgeable in the series in person. Of particular concern I see a mark in the reverse left field which I wonder if is a copyist mark I don't know right offhand so my guess is replica which you drop the value by 99%.

    Sorry to say it but I'm pretty sure it's a fake, although my very late reply may be worthless anyway. I have a coin that seems exactly the same so it would be a museum replica. I don't know what a real 1 penny 1562 Elizabeth coin would be worth unfortunately. Sorry!
