Struggling to identify this token. 

Obverse Legend reads PLUS ULTRA and what appears to be a maker's mark of IH at the bottom.
Reverse is hard to read but I think I have a partial reading of PABLICK: REH: PFEN: K: K: NAD….CK

The token appears to be hammered and measures ~23mm x 0.75mm

Yes, I saw these, but struggling to even find a maker that matches IH - definitely similar style, but I wondered if mine might be a touch earlier being hammered.

Sorry I had not seen your reply - I had already discounted this maker because he seemed too late for a hammered coin.
