I think this is byzantine but not sure. I believe it is silver. I have six of these with similar markings. I apologize if the scan is sideways. Any help appreciated as to identification and/or value.

THANKS

Not my area, but I think I've seen some similar designs from Islamic Spain?

@dan, first welcome to CCF. Second, I'm pretty sure that this coin looks like a 13th Century Dirham from the Ayyubid Sultantate. Compare your coin with this link from numista:
