The shape might be a galley. (Your pic would be upside-down) And, given the centration dimples, it may be a Seleucid issue (which sometimes show up in the AE's) of Demetrius I or II.

Edit: I tried linking to the search results, but it didn't work. Here are links to several pics for comparison instead:

I do think your coin had imagery on both sides - it's just worn.

Thought I might try taking out some color to see if I see what Bob sees. (There is also some Phoenicia with a head in this direction and galley.) But below is one of the SELEUKID KINGDOM examples Bob posted compared to the coin in question. I kind of think I see a bust on the obverse. (I could have the bust side oriented incorrectly as well.)
