Looks to be a weight, but I would'nt think its a coin weight because of its size, more likely to be a trade weight, difficult to precisely date but somewhere between the 16th-17th century.

Hi,
Hard to tell. What's it weigh?
There are 3 dots on the left side but I don't see them on the right, to make 6 pennyweights.
Normally, the dots on English pennyweights are dot-in-circle roundels or annulets.
To be a coinweight it has to have the basic characteristics of the coin's image. Sort of like shorthand.
Glad to hear more, Gary,
