I found this coin on the floor of a bus in NYC, and I went home to look it up, but I don't understand the writing. I was wondering if someone could help me I.D. it. It is a silver colored coin, and is the same size as a quarter, but a hair thicker and a little heavier. Sorry for the color difference in the photos. I took one with the white balance messed up.

Looks like 2 Drachma from Greece. I believe this was a commemorative issue of the coup d'état of 04/21/67.

That's an interesting choice for someone to carry around as a pocket piece.
