Hoping someone can help with a valuation of the coin. We found it in amongst my Grandfathers things. possibly brought home during the First World War.

I have attached a pdf of the coin enlarged. Any assistance would be very welcome.

It's British. In 1826, the sixpence and shilling both had the same design, so without a scale I can't tell the difference. If the coin is the same size as an Australian 5 cents, it's a sixpence, 10 cents it's a shilling.
