Like to Know About a 1797 Britannia Coin.

I have a 1797 Britannia coin. Stamped around the coin on the obverse is GEORGIUUS III D : G . R . E . X with a stamped image of, I assume, a profile of a king. On the reverse stamped around the coin is
B R I T A N I A 1797 and in the center is a seated woman holding a trident in her left hand\arm with a shield resting below her left hip.

I googled the coin but nothing was returned describing the specified coin.

I'd like to know the history of the coin and what it's worth.

Thanks,

M.

yakpoo's thread:

That's it but mine has a nice patina and is 3/16" thick. Unfortunately, the rim is a little dinged.

I'll try take some pictures as soon after I setup the camera.
