You are asking about a 1/2 Penny coin (KM#15) from British West Africa. It is 25.2mm in diameter, with a roughly 6mm center hole, and is composed of Copper-Nickel. The front has the words "HALF PENNY" around the center hole (in English above and in Arabic below), with a crown above it. To the left of the crown is "EDWARVS VIII" and to the right "REX ET IND: IMP:" (abbreviated Latin for "Edward the Eighth" and "King and Emperor of India"). The back has a large hexagram (6-pointed star)around the center hole, with "BRITISH WEST Africa" above and "1936" below. The edge of the coin is plain. The mintmark, if there is one, would be on the front just below the center hole.
The coin was produced at three different mints: 14,760,000 at the Royal Mint in London (no mintmark), 2,400,000 at the Heaton mint in Birmingham, England ("H" mintmark), and 2,298,000 at the King's Norton mint, also in Birmingham ("KN" mintmark). A small number of Proof coins were also produced at each mint.
According to the Standard Catalog of World Coins, an example with no mintmark is valued at US$0.25 in Fine condition, US$0.50 in Very Fine condition, US$1.00 in Extremely Fine condition, US$2.50 in Uncirculated condition, and US$4.50 in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. An example in Proof is valued at US$200.00.
