A fraud?

I have tried to find information on it, but there seems to be none. Is it a fake coin?

It appears to be a walking liberty half dollar from 1942, but the strike seems to be not very precise, which makes me believe that it wasn't produced by the United States Mint. It is also extremely small, smaller than any i have ever seen before, as you can see by the size of the staple for comparison.
Could it be play money similar to the Victorian Lauer style coins? smaller replica of a circulating coin for use in older games like Monopoly for example.

​It's a 10mm guilded miniature.
There are silly collectors as myself who collect those precious Jewels (I still have a couple of 20 dollar Saint Gaudens miniatures to swap).
They're can be bought online for 6 USD, but that one in the picture it's very rough made. It must to be play money!
Cents are money too!
Looks too small and rough as most have said already to be real sadly but a very nice collectible play money coin, I have a few from British Toy Coins in my personal collection along with Silver and Bronze also Copper ones too. All collectible so keep hold of it, Contemporary fakes are highly sought after in certain countries and modern ones follow slightly behind as far as I can see from here in the UK. I have a very large collection of Tokens and Toy Coins along with Fakes of all sorts.
