Hello, I am hoping that someone can help with the identification of the folling(what I think is a!) coin. I recently inherited it as one of a big-ish collection of world coins. I have tried to identify it with various online resources but with no luck so far. Any help would be gratefully received as I am intrigued as to what it is! I have attached a couple of photos - apologies if it is not correctly orientated. Many thanks in advance!

Hi Zaslit.

Before you gave the dimensions I would of said it was cash 1661-1722

But given the size it should be 10 cash but defeats me - hopefully expert will help.

I should add maybe a fake because someone else will and I do not know.

I do apologise Rooneydog, stupid typo earlier, meant to say approximately 3cm in diameter not 4! I have since been able to measure more accurately and it's 27.5mm, many thanks for your reply I will have a read up! Thanks again, Rich
