coin/token find(old?)

[deerman]

Found this well worn coin/token at a river in West Virgina while looking for some loot to plunder..lol its well worn as you can see,At first i thought it was a delamatated qtr.
but the face is the wrong way, then MAYBE a 2 reale or colonial coin? so i looked up what i could on those???still no answers so if anyone has a guess???as you can see its
very thin about three peices of paper thick,and a little bigger then a qtr. it has some letters above the head but i can't make them out so i think that rules out the 2 reale??? heres the pictures
