Ahh cricket, the Gentlemen's game!
Ok, so if Asia and Africa are out that leaves these Cricket Test Nations:
Australia New Zealand UK: England and Wales
And the West Indies:
Antigua and Barbuda Barbados Dominica Grenada Guyana Jamaica Saint Kitts and Nevis Saint Lucia Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Trinidad and Tobago

Ireland is still technically a possibility as it hosted a test match in 2018 and ceased to be a member of the Commonwealth in 1949. "was this coin issued by a member of the Commonwealth of Nations?"

West Indies is out and Australia and New Zealand did not have their own coins before 1900, so it looks like the coin is issued in the United Kingdom.
