  French - Louis 16th, Consititutional period (1791-93). either 3, 6, 12 deniers, or 2 sols, depending on size.

  Based on what remains of the wreath on the reverse, it looks like it is definitely a 12 deniers.
  Should be about 28-29mm, made of "bell metal"
  
  
  Here is what a nice one would look like.
