Hi I found this large copper coin while metal detecting in a field near cockington village, Torquay in United Kingdom it is very worn and not much to look at but it does have very distinctive indentations off to one side on either side of it. I think the shape of the indentation is either square or shield shape. The coin measures 32mm and around 4mm thick. I have never seen a coin before like this but I'm sure someone who has seen one like it would easy recognize it via the location of the square/shield shape dents. Any help on this one would be great, cheers guys

Many thanks Richard

I first thought that it was made of copper but today I have had a closer look and it turns out that it is made of lead.

Another possibility is a lead seal.
A few others were posted here recently.
