Hi

It is a denar of Slavonia (now in Eastern Croatia) struck c.1260-1350. Unfortunately I can't make out the letters at the ends of the cross in the reverse (which is upside down) which would identify the 'ban' or local ruler and give a better date. See http://amadiocoins.com/catalog/coin/2485 for a coin of 1272-80, but I suspect yours is later as it looks a bit debased.

Best wishes

Alan

Hi Alan you are right this is the Slavonian denarius, but ancient imitation, because the original coins are silver !

best regards

Hello Alan and Quadrans,
Yes, it seems to me that there is silvered, not silver coins.
Thanks for your opinion
