About the only thing I can be sure of for this copper medal (?) is the diameter: 29mm. The 1770s seems like it's right but have your own look, please, and let me know what you think.

This looks like your coin:
Denmark - 1 Skilling Dansk - Christian VII - 1771-1779

Glad to be of service, jdsstrat! Luckily I had worked with some similar coins a few weeks ago so I recognized the monogram.
