The only text I can read on this coin is the numbers 307 on the bottom left and a 5 on the left of the first picture. I'm not even sure that the second picture is right side up. I think it might be from an Indian state, but I'm not sure. Coin is about the size of a British half penny. Any guesses?

I'm nowhere near my reference books right now, but I think this is 2 Pice, British India, probably East India Co, maybe Bombay Presidency

Thanks alganbagerap. I think I just found it under Bengal Presidency under British India. It looks exactly like KM# 52 or Pn19 (1795) Pice Copper Plain edge P#380, is the description given, which is a pattern coin. Not sure which one though. I guess I need to get a weight and diameter. I will try to later when I am home.
