Sounds like it is either a 1897 or an 1898 3 Pence. I'll pick the 1897 3 Pence, but note that they have almost identical mintages so it is a toss-up.

I'm not going to ask about Europe, had enough of those coins.
Is the coin from Asia?

Does the obverse (the side with the date of issue) depict one or more humans?

#1: Is the coin from Asia? No Quote:
#2: Does the obverse (the side with the date of issue) depict one or more humans? Yes, sorta. Your question assumes that the date is listed on this coin, which it might or might not have (potential future question...) I can confirm that at least part of a human is depicted on at least one of the sides though. Quote:
