Hi Young,

Your coin is a denaro of Manfred, King of Sicily (1258-1264).  The mint is either Brindisi or Manfredonia.  The obverse features a crowned eagle facing with head left and the legend  :plus:MAYNFRIDVS.  Reverse features a cross with the legend  :plus:REX.SICILIE.  Reference is MEC14 #603.

Cheers,

David
