It looks like some kind of modern reproduction but I can't quite tell what it is. Welcome to coin community by the way.

It's a reproduction of the famous Bohemian trade coin, the pragergroschen, from the reign of Charles I.

Here's an old thread over on the CU forum, where someone posted an identical one. I haven't seen it edge-on before, though - that makes it obvious it's a repro (genuine pragergroschen were very thin).

I seem to recall seeing that symbol on the edge on coins before - though it also looks a bit like the Chinese/Japanese number "4".
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis
