Looks Greek, one side is a club, the other side I don't know, maybe a goat or horse. You could search sites like acsearch.info, Wildwinds, sold ancient coins auctions, Vcoins, etc. In their search lines type "club" you'll get lots of hits.

Very worn hard to ID copper/bronze ancient coins are usually not worth much. Sometimes they just can't be identified. But it's fun going through them. Some collectors like to buy them, learn how to properly clean them and try to ID.

Thank you @livingwater - I agree these are fun even though the monetary value is very low - I enjoy the research, the learning, and the history even if they are in rough shape.

That shows a head of Hercules with the lion skin on the obverse. And his club, plus at least two two lines of greek text on the reverse.
I cannot say which coin it is.

It may be Commodus and latin text. That one had a thing for Hercules.

Thank you, @jecz79. That's some good further info that I couldn't discern myself. I will research further and post back here when I figure it out.
