Welcome! There are all sorts of reference sites we can recommend.
Wildwinds Has the "classic coinage" of ancient Greece and Rome.
Grifterrec is a good site for ancient Sassanian, and also covers Indian, Persian and Central Asian coins.
Zeno.ru is a huge database, specialising in Asian coinages - Chinese, Islamic, Indian States, that sort of thing.
For more modern coins, NumisMaster and WorldCoinGallery are two popular search sites.
CoinArchives has a modern coin section and an ancient coin section, but tends only to list the more expensive coins, and a lot of the site is in German.
And of course, if you're getting nowhere or you don't know where to start, post a picture here on the forum and our friendly members should be able to help you out. If it's a world coin, post it in the World Coins section, if it's an ancient, try the Ancient Greek and Roman section.
