Hello, newbie here wondering about an old coin I found in my father's things. It is very worn, only the date is legible: 1862. Appears on front to be a woman(?) profile and on the back a side view of her head. Any thoughts on identifying and value? Thanks in advance!

It's an 1862 copper coin of Great Britain showing a seated Brittania figure on one side and a profile of Queen Victoria on the other. Depending on size, it could be a farthing, half penny, or one penny. Value? Curiosity value only in this condition.
