Welcome, snoopy!

This is not a coin but rather some kind of jeton or a token.

The obverse is modeled after a British silver crown, or 5 shillings, of Charles I (ruled 1625 - 1649). The legend says CAROLUS D.G. MAGN BRITAN FRAN ET HYBER REX, which translates from Latin into "Charles by the Grace of God King of Great Britain, France and Ireland".

The reverse doesn't match any coin.
