Hi all!
Just found this metal round in a coin lot. Don't know what it is, so I need your help.
Diameter : 23mm
Weight : 5.73gr
Color : brass / gold
Side 1 : shield
Side 2 : bishop with staff?


Thank you for any information.

Regards, Tony

That is the 1987 restrike. Maybe yours is an original.

​The edge looks to smooth, and it's too round to be an original, IMHO. Maybe another replica ?

Maybe that, in gold, is the original.

I am seeing EPS LEODIO on the shield side, which makes it a coin of the Archbishopric of Liege, maybe: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces298689.html

... except the weight is way off.

Edit: These were made of lower quality gold, so the appearance is often on the dull side compared to a "fine gold" coin. Mine has a color like a cooked egg yolk.
