Answer
Hi Ryan, this bimetallic coin has a brass ring around the copper-nickel center. Collector value may be worth about .90 with light wear to maybe $2.25 if uncirculated (no wear).
You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Coins for pictures, values and lots more interesting info.
It is worth about 26 cents U.S. exchange value.
