You need to decrease the size of your images to under 0.49mb. Try using a program that allows you to downsize the quality of your images then upload them. ?

In the absence of images if you can read and tell us the legends on the reverse (non-head side) it might help a bit ..

Its either a gold double crown or crown of charles 1st. The double crown has an X to the right of charles portrait and the crown has a V to the right of the portrait. The Mintmark looks to be Cross Calvary which would date it to 1625-1626 AD .

Great find. ?
