I thought this was Canadian Colonial but I couldn't find it in Charlton. Any ideas?

Looks like a well worn example of a penny token, 1822, by Edward Stephens, a Dublin merchant. Withers-1846 or a or b depending on the edge. Stephens issued a variety of penny tokens, this one with George IV and Hibernia with an inscription of a popular bible verse (LUKE XX CHAP. XXV:VER). Probably engraved by Halliday.

Thanks, I forgot to mention it is penny size.
