This one has got me foxed.
It's around 18mm in diameter and 0.5mm thick.
Similar to Charles I but head is facing to the right.
In pretty poor condition as you can see from the pics but interesting.
Also not sure what denomination it would be 1/2 groat?
Thanks in advance,
Mike.

It's a Type 1 halfgroat of James I, mintmark thistle (struck 1603-1604).

WOW, thanks for that Sap; I've been hunting for that info on and off for a week now.
Will add it to the website I'm compiling.

The '11' behind the head, and that distinctive portrait gave the coin it's identification.
