Here is a link to absolutely every Byzantine coin. With a quick search you will find this coin here. (Our moderator will probably tell you the coin as this is his field I have seen in the past. But you can have some fun first!)

Like here is an example of the shape.

Yes, it's a coin. Probably 'Abbasid or at least of that era. The central legends are the Kalima. The mint and date, if any, would be in the margins.

Wow I am truly sorry. The coins do mimic often the Byzantine coinage but I really should have downloaded the image, lightened it up, and perhaps I would have seen my error. Thanks for correcting my error Kushanshah!

Analyzing, maybe there is someone bizantine coin overstamped with abbasid or umayyd seal. What do you think about that.

It's hundreds of years earlier than the late Byzantine coins with this sort of flan.

I didn't get an accurate ID. But, I found coins of this type in the Andalusian Taifas. Perhaps due to the type of border it is possible to correctly identify the taifa, but I have not found the reference material. Only someone specializing in this type.
