I believe it may be a toll token valued at 1 pence. That's face value, not collector's value.

Nice,,,It must be a few years old but it is not the same age as the date because the date stamp is too neat and sharp, I think itr could be a bicentinery commemortive token still its a great find weldone I hope you find out soon,

Check out the Joan of Ark society/ or maybe a JoA school. Few years ago I had a ST Johns token the research showed was used in a local school for lunch/ school supplies etc.

Either way nice addition to any collection

Something else just occurred to me, Jimby. See if it weighs 1.55517384 grams which is a pennyweight. A dwt is one pennyweight - a unit of measure for jewelers and assayers. You may have a scale calibration token there.
