 The coin is 19mm in size and .5 mm in thickness and appears to be made of copper or bronze. Thanks for any assistance !

Well, the second photo has a legend that appears to end in G HISP REX ( for … Dei Gratia Hispaniarum Rex) which puts it in the large world of SPanish possessions of the 1500s-1600s.  Places like Low COuntries and Italy come to mind, though I do not recognize that coat of arms in the first photo as being from Low Countries.
