It appears to be a coin struck on an incomplete planchet. The difficulty comes in being 100% sure on a coin that is that worn.

The way the rim is looks right on the obverse and is a little inconclusive on the reverse. Seeing the very edge would be a help but it is likely too worn to be of major use.

My gut tells me yes but the coin needs a closer look.

Thanks,
Bill
