Hello experts!

 

I am unable to find the reference of this coin, it is in very bad condition:

There are some simmilar under Scotland but none with this weight and diameter

Weight: 1.35g

Diameter: 17mm

 

One side: HIB …

Other: MAG BRIT …O… 

So I guess is CAROLVS

 

 

Anyone have a clue what reference is this coin?

 

Thank you for any comment

N#55283 

 Yours  has an uneven shape so was 19mm at one time. 

Lettering continues from obverse to reverse. 

CAROLVS D G MAG BRIT // FRAN & HIB REX 

Triple thistle // Crowned rampant lion to left with two pellets behind 

Token collector [1600-1899] with some coins

Thank you for your super fast response
I see there are small differences (like the top of the flower) but I guess is OK for a coin from 1629

Thank you very much!

That is the denomination, which yours has - two pellets / two pence.
