I'm not convinced it's actually a coin. Or that it's that old. Never seen anything quite like it.

I have some doubt about the number of these he has found. I have seen many detecting finds from this area but nothing like these? I've even detected some property adjacent to the battlefield in Schuylerville...then again I am not a very good detectorist.

I agree with Vermont. It's a Spanish Maravedis. I have quite a few of them
