I can safely say that, whatever this is, it isn't a genuine old coin. It's trying hard to copy mediaeval European coins, with a Latin legend around - but the letter "W" does not exist in Latin.
I suspect it's some kind of "creative anachronism", made in modern times by historical re-enactors or someone else who wished to make their "coins" look old-fashioned. Or perhaps, with the Neptune theme on the reverse, it was made by someone as a little souvenir of crossing the equator.

Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis
