Maybe somebody can help with this coin. Diameter 22 mm.
Thanks
Looks like a coin (or replica) of this ruler:

Thank you.
Looks like it is this coin (I hope it's not replica) https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces1133.html
but diameter is not 23 mm (only 22 mm)???
a lot of different dimensions and materials can be found with these coins.

​These coins are not struck by machine. Instead, they are made on manpower by pouring metal into hand-crafted sand mould. So it is not surprising to have different diameters (and lots of sub-variants as well)
Indeed they are casted:
