Re: beutiful odd large coin
Looks like a replica of the famous and somewhat rare 1877 Indian head cent .
The Indian Head Cent, which debuted in 1859, averaged a mintage of 18 million annually, until 1877, when production suddenly declined to only 852,000.
Relatively few cents were issued in 1877 because the Mint had a sufficient supply of older cents in storage to meet reduced demand for coinage that year, due to soft economic conditions that began four years earlier.

Re: beutiful odd large coin
Size will typically matter in photographs, so a size reference for an unknown is a good idea.
Having said this, the details show this is a replica. They used to make drink coasters of classic coins and this is what yours reminds me of.
