Cool find! I hope someone can tell you more about it.

I’m pretty sure these tokens are a common find in England, not so much here.

Freakin cool token I love finding tokens also. Great job still may be a few more good days left in the season

Cool find. I always thought these large copper tokens were needed in NA because of a shortage of coinage in the early 1800’s. I didn’t think the UK had the same need.

Im not sure, I think the shortage was felt in the UK too,but nothing compared to NA.
