I don't think it's gold. Otherwise, it wouldn't be corroded with all those deposits on the surface.

Uuuuuf!...
As a long shot Pete I'll go with a Trajan Dupondius.
Lets see what others come up with.
Agree with John on the base metal..
Looks to be a seated deity on the reverse.
Also pretty sure I can see SC in the exergue?
Paul..
