Hi, here`s more info. on the coin.
It`s 43mm in diameter and 2mm thick.
Sir Isaac Newtons profile is on one side along with the inscription S.ISAAC NEWTON, also on the same side is A CALENDAR 1822 along with various other dates all round the edge.
On the other side is a grid with numbers 1-31 in it plus lots of other dates round the grid.
The coin is dark in colour with a smooth rim and looks well used although not damaged.
It`s in a small round bake-a-lite[I`ve probably spelt that wrong] case with a label on it printed with I&T.TURNER jewellers New Bond St. London.
Do you think it`s rare and who would use a calendar coin it doesn`t make much sense to me, any information will be gratefully received - many thanks.

What you have is not a legal tender coin, but rather a medal as I suspected. Kind of a novelty coin. Without being able to physically see it, I can't really tell you whether it is from the period or a later replica ( I suspect the latter). If from the period I'd guess the value at $20-50 US. If a replica, I'd say $5-10 tops. Hopefully this info helped you somewhat.
I did a bit more research for you... the piece could also be a satirical piece... there were some economic difficulties in the early days of George IV and many satirical tokens were made during that period. The Newton piece might be a play on words...kind of a reference to "what goes up must come down". Just thought I'd pass that along.

confident, he would desire to be incorrect, or purely misinterpreted, or it would desire to be that he grew to become into top, and his calculations contained in the worldwide cooling variety have been by some potential shown properly suited, and that credibility carried self belief that an person-friendly reversal of a few indications (- to +, etc) would desire to transform his findings to be utilized in worldwide warming fashions. Isaac and Al? that is taking it slightly a good distance i think of. Mathematicians and politicians basically artwork mutually while compelled to, frequently to the severe of being at gunpoint or the like LOL.
