Is this a coin??

[Old Finger]

Just found this detecting a felid in Massachusetts about the size of a half cent but thinner. There is some detail but not sure what it is

Yeap, some detail on it, but not British.

Likely a button. A coin wouldn't crumble on the edges.

I'll say button...just a guess... it seems too perfectly round if that makes sense...

Could that be a KG 1 or 2 coin.

If you’re showing both sides of it, I’m not convinced it’s a button. It seems to have designs on both sides, and no sign of where an attachment loop might have been.

In your first picture at 9 o’clock, I can see the lower half of a letter ‘E’, above the outline of what looks like the top of an armorial, and another letter with a single upright (or possibly an 'N') the other side of it:

In your second picture, on the lower half at 7 o’clock I can see what looks like the outline of a large arrow pointing upwards, with perhaps a double-stemmed letter or ‘Roman’ numeral ‘II’ in the pointed portion:

Nope definitely a coin, I see the letter E for an inscription around 1 edge & detail on both sides.

PS. cross-over post with Red-Coat. It's a coin.

Something here too. Could be paradolia but looks eagleish.

My guess is coin

Another tough one...thanks to Red Coat it might be this...based on measurements it could be close

I wouldn't question either you, or Red-Coat, let alone both. Your opinion was up, when I posted my thoughts. It wasn't argumentative. Haven't seen too many coins with crumbling breaks before. Thanks for the correction.

Could be a triangle also, looks like it might have the same markings on each side. An interesting one!

...with the little bit of edge loss it could be the six deniers!

Good call I think. There are die variants, which means you may not (readily) find an exact match.

Funny, I was going to throw out French as a best guess, but thought better of it, as I couldn't see anything I recognised.
Good call, I think....

Good ID Ironhorse
I think you got it, or pretty darned close.

 

[ironhorse]

The OPs coin has the H mintmark others include the N and & as listed in the link...and that would account for the minor variations as mentioned
I'm confident this is solved
