doesn't look ancient to me, but does strike me as old. Perhaps an early modern architectural piece? I imagine it would be a depiction of one of the gods - it doesn't look like any ruler I've seen on coinage.

I think you need to find a different man to find your treasure.

maybe a lid to something? like an ornate container of some type? must be fairly modern.

I think you are right chrsmat. Possibly a lid to a glass or ceramic container cointaining scented oil or some other ungent. I don't think the container would be that big. Whether for a man or a woman, I couldn't say. I would guess, for a man. I don't think that the portrait on the lid looks feminine enough for cosmetics.

It's not a coin or a lid, for a change I know what something is. Would be a shame to ruin the debate though. The clue to what it is, is in the making, it has a folded rim and that is pretty rare to find on metals after the 18th century.

Post it in the detecting finds bit, I am sure they will nail it. It is a bit unusual as these don't usually have a bust on the 'top', they are normally a simple slightly rounded object.

I think if this piece is as rare as you think, you need to take it to a museum to have it checked and verified. I would like to know where this was found? Was it at an ancient site as an authorized dig? If this is old and that's a big if in my book. I don't think it's any older than the 19th century.

I will venture a guess......
I notice that hand held glass mirrors made their first appearance in the first century CE ...... In of all places Lebanon !
Could it be that we have a very elegant example here ? It does seem to be the right size for the purpose.
