I am pretty sure I have this coin but it is in much worse condition. Found this on ebay, can anyone tell me what it is? It is about 12mm.

How cool is that! Thanks. All my stuff is packed away for the holiday tomorrow, so couldn't post my coin. Can't make out anything of the head.

Very nicely patinated too ! Once upon a time..... a long long time ago ..... in a universe far far away, away back in the 80's I used to fish these out of the "bargain bins" for a few dollars apiece. The way I see some good deals going by recently you might get it for the price of two cups of coffee ! Not more than 4 cups ..... thats too much
