Any thoughts on what this might be?

In hand the text on the left picture is slightly clearer than in the scan. The first line reads DVC and the second might be GLAMIÆ, GLASIÆ or something.

The other side appears to have no text - it's either patterns or a coat of arms.

Copper, 19,0 mm, 1,60 g.

A duit from Cleves.

KM#37 I think.
always willing to trade modern UK coins for modern coins from elsewhere....

Thanks - I agree. Tentative date 1696 or 1698.
