Hello everyone!

I have this silver coin... I believe it's probably Byzantine. It was found in Romania. As you can see in the pictures, the writing is hard to make out, but it's clearly Latin. It has a double-headed eagle on it with a crown and a cross.

Yes... I believe you are right. Thank you so much! I had no idea it could be a dutch Florin, but then again I don't know much about coins, so I was just taking a stab in the dark saying it might be Byzantine. If there is anything else you can tell me about it I would be very grateful.
