It’s definitely Elizabeth I, not sure of the denomination without the weight/ diameter.

@theman73 sharper photos would also help- it looks like there’s a mint mark at about 1 O’Clock- but it’s not very clear- this mark will narrow the age of the coin down to its years of issue- poor photo, but it might be 94- Martlet- Second Issue 1573- 1578.

It's Elizabeth 1st penny...needs some scale to be sure

I don’t believe an Elizabeth I Half Groat has any ‘dots’ that signify the denomination- I think it’s best to weigh it and measure the diameter of the coin to determine what it is.

What does the lettering say?

No idea, one of my friends who is metal detectorist found it today

I can make out some of the lettering, and I am sure you could if you tried.

It is easier with the actual coin because it is easier to turn round rather than a 4G monitor.
