Hello. 

I found this coin (?), but I can't identify it. Can anybody please help me? 

17mm and 0.71grams.

A big thank you!

It's definitely a bird. 

My first thought was something like this: N#48334

What's the material ?

Referee of south atlantic islands

A medieval counter or token rather than a coin.

 

At first sight I thought it was lead, but the reddish tones here and there suggest copper.

Nicely done, “nobody”. 

 

So, it's pewter, which fits the general appearance.

Most definitely a variant.

They seem to be rather rare.

Thank you all for the input! 

Considering the age and possible rarity, what would be a fair selling price?

Hi, 

I'd say not much given the state of preservation.
