I'm not even sure this is a coin

I've searched the catalogue by image without finding anything useful. I'm not even sure this is a coin - it came in as part of a coin donation to Oxfam in Exeter, but then we get all sorts of non-coins in coin donations!!

 

Weight is 0.66 g approx.

Diameter 17 mm approx.

 

Could be a lighter version of this coin - or I´m completely off…

Token collector [1600-1899] with some coins

I've compared the first reply with the coin, and I just don't think they are simialr enough.

 

I've been through the Portuguese India coins as uggested in the second reply, but nothing seems a good fit.

 

Thanks for trying to help me :-)

The shape reminds me of a Vierzipfliger Pfennig

I see what you mean. Thanks for trying to help me. I've checked through all for the Bishopric but none match really clealry. Also they seem to be silver and I don't think this is silver. I'm not good on composition but this does seem to have a coppery gleam in places.
