I was told it is a crusader coin but I have no idea. Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

This looks to be a denier of the Italian City of Lucca. It was made between 1035 and 1125 AD or so. I'm going to recommend to the mods that your post get moved over to the correct section of CCF.

Seriously though, these deniers from Lucca have a very distinctive design: the letter H on the rev side (standing for Henry the III, IV, or V) and then, typically, a very degraded L V C A on the obv. Mine looks pretty much like yours.
