Almost matches George III Guinea from United Kingdom, but these were in gold and all examples on numista show the portrait facing right, not left. I would search other territories and possession of the British Empire. Good luck and be sure to let us know what you find.
Not really a coin. Its a gaming token. My 1783 has MFETHREXFDBETLDSRIATETE on the reverse. Quite sure that is gibberish. 26mm
It's not gibberish, the genuine gold coins have very similar, just can't find a copper similar at this point https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/object/C_1838-1203-5

Thank you! I knew it had meaning, but I wasn't sure where to find the information to help flesh out the meaning of the lettering of the coin.
