It's certainly not a coin. Maybe it was made as some sort of decorative object. Diameter & mass would be nice.
The portrait, bearded & laureate, more jowly than the immediate previous one, is similar to that used on the new coinage of 1893.
For comparison, the 1 Corona of 1893 (a worn specimen):

Correct, it's not a coin, and it never was - it was presumably made by the same token-makers that made the spielgeld linked to by Petrus above. These one-sided pieces may have been made for inserting into an object (like those beer steins) or perhaps as some kind of personalizable token or medal which the purchaser could stamp their own initials onto.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis
