It's a denarius of Domitian... but not an official mint product I am sure, whether it is an ancient or modern forgery I wouldn't know.  It does copy an official model, however.

IMP CAES DOMIT AVG GERM P M TR P V , laureate head right
IMP XI COS XII CENS P P, Minerva with thunderbolt and spear

Modern copy. The small R before Minerva is a maker's mark. Made from new dies as the style isn'y close to being official.
