I told a friend that I would identify this coin for him thru this forum. My knowledge of foreign coins is zero. Identity and composition will be appreciated. I suspect some silver content. Thanks.
Looks like a platypus on reverse.

Copper-nickel 20c from Australia. Very common, nearly 39 million minted. Worth 20c.

Some more info can be found here https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces1003.html

... and out of interest, is that an indentation below the Queen's shoulder or is it just a contamination mark?
