Found this coin/token at a colonial site with a group from Addam's Artifacts and Relic Hunting Adventures yesterday near Charleston, SC. Can anyone ID it? I think it is copper and I added a few more close up pictures.

I think it is a brass counter / Nuremberg rechen pfennig of King Charles II of England,

Here is one of a similar style- though looks like it might be a little different.
