    I think, it is token (halfpenny or one penny). Maybe - from England.

    That appears to be a condor token for 1 penny issued by the Birmingham Mining and Copper company, England, although I'm far from sure. A very nice find !

    Irish Conder token - one of the tokens from the Hybernian Mine Company, whose partners were Turner Camac, John Howard Kyan and John Camac - thus the legend CAMAC KYAN AND CAMAC.

    Catalogued by Dalton and Hamer, there are ~200 varieties catalogued.
