It looks like a silver version of a Hungarian gold ducat.

I think the legend reads:

S. LADISL AVS REX (for St. Ladislaus, a king of Hungary).

It does NOT look like Mathias on the reverse... that would be Mathias Corvinus... and there should be a raven on the coat of arms.  It looks more like WLAD for Wladislaus begins the legend on the side with the shield!
