Help To Identify This Coin

@joe, please post a picture of the other side, plus the weight and diameter. Thx.

I found it metal detecting in Colorado also found a Seated Liberty dime in the same area. What do you think this may possibly be? it has a definite design on it. They are not random marks on the one side.

Hello. The coin is not attracted to a magnet at all. I have a very strong magnetic and there is no type of attraction. Any Ideas?

Those do look like deliberate markings in that last picture, rather than random blobs. But it looks hand-carved, not cast or struck. Whoever carved it presumably had their reasons, but those are now lost to us.

The odd shape then requires explanation - a perfectly round object with hand-carving would be a hobo nickel, but a hobo nickel wouldn't have such an odd shape.. Perhaps someone was aiming to imitate the shape of an ancient or mediaeval coin? In which case, given the rather crude carved design, I'm wondering if it's "prop money" - something made for use in a theatrical play?

Joe, I appreciate your skills with that paint app, but this looks like Pareidolia to me.

Last share I promise, lol. Just wanted to share the small detail on this object. You must be right about my mind seeing things that are not there, because I see a few different things here. Thanks for helping me to understand about this find. Have a great weekend!!!

I see a clear Native American design. Perhaps it was used in trade with the settlers.

Did you find it near an old Indian Reservation or area that was known to be Native?

If I may ask, where was it located? That could help to figure it out. It's a really cool piece. After 40 years of living in Colorado, I am quite knowledgeable of it's history.
