The figure resembles St. John the Baptist on a Firenze Fiorino d'oro. I cannot make out the reverse.

As BobL says, the first picture is unmistakeable in identifying this coin as a medieval fiorino or florin d'or, a type of gold coin made across much of Europe in the 13th to 17th century.
Here is a French version:https://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotv...19d87100e1a7

However, there are also many imitations of these coins for tourists, etc.

Normally the reverse is a fleur-de-lis design, and yours does not have this, which makes it unusual, or suggests it is an imitation.
