Not you’re run of the mill hammered mudskipper. I haven’t seen one like it but I’m sure someone else will help.
Lovely coin.

It's like this one - but I can't clearly read the mint signature on the reverse

(Anglo gallic, time of Edward the black prince)

Actually I've just noticed the crown on yours, so it is a bit later, have a look at this one.

Henry IV/V/VI

It's one of those that could appeal to collectors of different types.

It was struck by an English king, but for use in their French lands.

Even the book of the types is bilingual.......
