Ha I haven't done any research into it but my first impression was Iberian sometime during the Roman Republic.

Yes it's Spain from Emporiae-Emporion

It's falls between Burgos 960 - 988.

I can't read the obv. legend to say which one for sure.

It was made between 50-27 BC when the Romans were in control of Emporion.

Nice one!

'Doucet'

My first impression was early Spanish too, but couldn't pinpoint it that well.

Yes, you had it first echizento, that's why I put 'Yes' starting my first sentence.

I should have been more specific with the credit. :)

Sorry, missed your post 'echizento' - saw the coin, then scrolled down to respond when I noticed the attribution by 'Doucet'.
