Charles I sixpence, Oxford mint. I'm uncertain because I thought that the crown pierced the circle more than is shown on this example. Also unsure of the reversed number 4 in the date.

It is a terrible fake. It wouldn't fool anyone remotely familiar with the real thing.

It appears to have the obverse of a sixpence and the reverse of a groat (fourpence). Did not all sixpences of Charles I have a coat of arms on the reverse? See this link:-

Also, I believe that coins minted after 1630 do not bear a date.
