Hello,...i'd love to help, but would require better quality pictures as i can't make out barely any details.
I can't tell if it's a genuine piece or a recent Chinese attempt....
Cheers

Mate, your first pic is great. That's the obverse of a 1946 half penny. Great year that, my year. But you need to get some pics of the front so we can read them. From my old knowledge of Aussie coins, the 1946 halfpenny had no special significance, so we would need to see more to be able to offer some advice.

Hard to tell if it's a mint mark of the planchet, or if done later just for laffs...i'm thinking post mint myself.

Best bet is to send pics & query here; https://www.ramint.gov.au/
But the idea of a homemade ring/pendant sounds feasible, but why not finish the job?
