You need to tell us what is on the coin. There are no British coins that have the legend of Queen Elizabeth the Second, rather the British coins would be in Latin and be some variation of Elizabeth II Dei Gratia Regina. So if the legend is in English you either a) Have a coin from somewhere in the commonwealth or most likely if there is no denomination/date you have b) a medal or a token of some sort

E = Elizabeth II = the second R = Regina
it is worth 20$ if in good condition but if in bad condition it is worth around 7-10$
