This is not a coin but some type of fantasy token.

The letters in the exergue are a mixture of Latin and Cyrillic, so maybe some indication of where this fantasy piece was made.

Interestingly it copies or is derived from an AE unit from Spain from around the second century A.D. though is itself entirley modern.

Its a relatively common coin. Harder to find in very nice condition but the Celtic coins are fascinating pieces.
