Maybe This, but an original sample.
Bronze Sierra Leone coin with image of King George III, dated 1808. This is a "fantasy" coin which was apparently minted using a plate made from one of the original Sierra Leone company coins first minted in 1796. Its purpose is unknown. These were certainly never used in Sierra Leone.
The diameter of it would be important to know also?.

Looks to be a 1770-75 british halfpenny-- these would have a seated Lady Brittania on the reverse if that is visible.
