Only guessing here but looking at the style of the O it is possible it is a coin of Ludovico Di Teck Patriarch of Aquileia

Obverse, with seated saint, reads S. ABONDI V' D' CVMIS. Reverse, with eagle, reads LVDOVIC' IMPERATOR.
A silver grosso from the province of Como, in Lombardy, of Franchino I Rusca (1327-35). The "Ludovic" is Louis IV, Holy Roman Emperor.

It looked like a Lion to me - glad I have an appointment with Specsavers on Tuesday.

Phil have you been able to locate any pictures of a higher grade coin ?
