Found this one walking down road. It caught sunlight just right in deep grass along rural farm road.

The design is that of a Netherlands ducat, which should be solid gold. Can't tell much more from the photos.

It appears to be a jewellery copy of a Dutch gold ducat; the design is mushy and the legends blundered somewhat. Your piece does not appear to be made of gold.

Genuine ducats look like this and weigh 3.49 grams.

^^^Sap^^^ is right on the money IMHO! I have a "jewelry" piece of 90% silver, 1700's (gold) Peru 2 Escudos. Pretty cool tho. I've come to find out that there are quite a bunch of these jewelry pieces of different coins. A lot made in silver and are based on real "Gold" coins.
