Good afternoon, I'm reaching out to you with a request to help me identify the find. I've already contacted many places, but no one can help. I suspect it's a coin made of silver. It was found in Crimea. It's exactly 2 centimeters in diameter and about half a millimeter thick. Unfortunately, I don't have the opportunity to weigh it right now. I would be very grateful, even for some tips. For your convenience, I've attached a photo with the symbols that were on one of the sides, which I managed to make out.

Welcome to CCF. I've never seen one of these. It may not be a coin, perhaps it's a token or medal.

I advise X-ray fluorescence testing to determine the metallic composition. If you want to get really fancy, neutron activation analysis can often distinguish between genuine antiquities and modern forgeries.

How was it "found?" In the ground, or in a transaction?
