Cant seem to find what this coin is...Its badly worn,but looks like something from the 1700s...I thought it might be from britain,but,I can't find a reverse that looks like it...You can see a "2" inside a circle on the back

Not a clue from those pictures. How big is it? Is it silver?

First pic turned 180 degrees looks like a crowned double headed eagle with a 3 set in an oval on its breast. Can't make out the other side, but 3 kreuzer might he a starting point:

Agree with earlier thoughts on this coin. Austria, Franz II, 3 Kreuzer, 1801 series.

I don't think I can get a better pic of the obverse ....Whoever's bust it is ,is so badly worn that theres no way to see it...It does however,look like there is an II on thee lower left side of the coins edge.At least thats what it looks like

I appreciate all the replies..
