Need help with colonial coin ID

[Bill D. (VA)]

Found this a few years ago at a site that gave up a bunch of colonial silver, but could never get an ID. Its about the size of a dime, and I think it may be spanish in origin. I don't think its old enough to be hammered as most of the other finds at the site were generally in the mid-to-late 1700s. I'm sure someone will readily recognize it. Thanks for the help.

I remember this one There is so little to go on...

Here just a guess. I was thinking maybe it was a "II" and "DV" for "DVC" (Duke) and came up with this Charles II French States Double Tournois though this would be early for your site. It is sized close to a dime - maybe a tad bigger. And there are a number of variations and varieties.

That is actually my guess as well, just didn't post it. I always thought it looked like a Double Tournois, and seeing it yesterday was no different, and knowing how many different coins were issued from the French states I figured if it didn't match one of the more common type Doubles we see, it was probably a state coin.
