It's not a coin. It's a kind of Indian "temple token" known as a "ramatanka". See this recent thread for another of the same design.

As sap has told you, it is a temple token even if the image to which he linked was not exact. Temple tokens come in a great variety and have patchy pedigree.

Please click on this link for a matching confirmation of the token.

As I don't collect them, I'd be guessing if I offered a value.

Sap is right about this temple token. Despite the difference in the picture, both these show "Sree Rama Pattabhisheka", meaning the coronation ceremony of lord Sree Rama on one side and Sree Rama and his lady Seetha standing together on the other. The legend and the fictitious date may differ between designs.
