There's an answer:

I think your coin is Italian, from the city of Florence.
The hairy man with the halo is Saint John the Baptist, and the words
on that side indicate his name: +S IOHANNES B
On the other side there is probably a fleur-de-lis, and the words give
the name of the place where the coin was issued: +FLORENTIA
Those coins were struck for several centuries, so I can't give you an
accurate date. Sometime in the Middle Ages or early Renaissance.
Thank's all for intrest
