Thanks sir.
any photos of the real one. I found this stuff around 48 years back. I kept it till now. I'm wondering whether it has any history related to Portuguese empire those days in Malacca.

Not sure, but maybe yours is older. The one with the scalloped
edge is still available today ...
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/283926472785
as one example.

There is also this long and interesting article ...
http://numismatics.org/digitallibrary/ark:/53695/nnan28786
where halfway down is the section
VIII GILT COPPER DUCAT TOKENS
'... both figures and inscriptions are mere caricatures of the originals.
On the obverse, the central staff and exergual line are prominent; the figures of St. Mark and
the doge are represented by plant or flower-like ghosts of human figures'.
So maybe yours was gilded in the past.
