Dear all, here is a bronze coin which is unidentified
On one side looks like a wolves, and the other a palm ?
It's about 10g and 25mm
It's part of a large collection of small roman coins
thank you all for your help

@ib, that is a Trifollaro of the Italian City State of Sicily. It was minted between 1166 and 1187 AD in Messina and the attribution is Biaggi 1231. Obv design is a 3/4 lion head and the rev is a palm or date tree.

Wow thank you for this quick reply and reference
nothing with roman coins as I though
difficult when there is no legend on both sides
thank you again
