I didn't make the mistake this time of trying to indicate origin.
It appears to be Greek to me!
It's appears to be made of silver, but extremely black
Also it's about 15 mm in diameter
THANX in advanxce

It is indeed Greek, a half-drachm from the Achaian city of Pellene.

Here's a CoinArchive search page with a whole bunch of coins of this type.
