1796 Myddlton Token copper pattern

Hey all its been a while since I've been on CoinTalk but I figured this was something yall might have some knowledge on - I've been purchasing some nice coin collections from this guy who has a bunch of family members that collect coins (nice stuff, gold, silver, foreign etc.) and he showed me this piece, I wasn't familiar with it and not sure if its real but it looks pretty rare if so, his family member purchased it from a guy who supposedly dug it up out of the ground on the east coast, which seems odd since the only examples I see with PCGS/NGC registry and research online appear to be MS examples. Any insight appreciated and wondering if I should soak in acetone since its so difficult to read and has some pretty bad environmental damage. XRF tests as copper composition, weighs 11.03 g, diameter 29.6mm

Welcome back stranger! Good to have you here again. I would be careful because it is copper and worn already. Acetone shouldn't hurt it though. Distilled water after. Take better pics after? BTW: It wasn't me that dug it up. Maybe @paddyman98 found it?
Also. Still have those Canadien Large cents you gave me.....

 

Good to see you again! I recognize all the names of these active members haha, been a long time since I've been on this website, been busy with college and buying/selling precious metals/coins!

 

Still out West? Good luck with collage and the selling / buying.
