Well this coin has me stumped. IMO it is a Anonymous folles of a type that I haven't seen before. There appears to be a legend on the reverse, however the only letter I can make out is L. It might be a Alexius I.

Strong work as always @bob. Do you mind sharing your search methodology on this one so that I can learn a little? Maybe CRUCIFORM SCEPTER as keywords?

Dave,

Initially: ae globus cruciger facing byzantine

Then, seeing how many returns there were, and suspecting Ron is - as usual - correct: ae globus cruciger facing byzantine Alexius
