Cannot identify, have hunted for years!

I have a bronze coin that was amongst a legacy received 20+ years ago. Every so often I take it out and try to ID it online, but nothing comes up.

This is bronze colour 4cm (1 1/2") diameter. On the one side it starts with the word 'Britons' and and goes anticlockwise to Harold II 1065, the other side continues from William I, 1066 through to George IV 1820. It then has a central portrait of Geo. IV on a left facing profile.

Does anyone have any idea what this could be, and value? Thanks.

If someone can tell me how, I do have a scan of this I can show.

When you do a new post, or a reply, there's an Attachments section just below. Click 'Choose File', go to where it is on your computer and select that picture. (You may need to resize or compress it as there is a maximum of 150k per post. A JPEG is usually the best bet.) Then there is what seems a completely unnecessary step of 'Attach This File', followed by 'Place in post'. (Why those last two can't be combined into one I have really no idea).

Thank you, it should enlarge OK for detail - I hope!

It's a downloadable item, not quite an attachment. But I can see it, though not large enough to make out the legend. However, your description is probably enough to guess that it goes through a list of British monarchs? In which case I would think it is a teaching aid, which there are many different types of in the 19th Century. OR, and this is perhaps less likely, it is a vain attempt by our worst monarch ever to establish himself in the pantheon of monarchy, as a foil to all the satirists who'd quite rightly lampooned his outrageous behaviour and obesity. I say less likely because he'd have to commission a private engraver to make it, and after that, who would distribute it? No, I think it more likely that it's an educational thing.

Maybe someone else here has a better idea?
