Good afternoon
I have a gold coloured coin that says Eduardus not Edward weighs 3.9g and is 22mm wide. Can anyone tell me if this is a real half gold sovereign? Many thanks

Unfortunately it is not a gold ½ sovereign. It is a token, like this one: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/ex...a169978.html

Note the posthorn mintmark below the truncation on the obverse. That might be a clue to who made it, considering it's certainly not a Royal Mint product.
