Another find from the coin sorting machine at work today... any ideas as to what it may be? or might have been?

Yes. It's a modern machine-struck mass-produced replica of an ancient Jewish coin known as a "widow's mite". We see several of these popping up every year here on the forum. See this thread for another recent example.
