Kredek,
Wrong period mate ! Hammered medieval silver rather than Roman.

Bingo! and thanks!
"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."

This answer arrived me today.
