Answer
Sorry, Gabby, can't picture what you have -- I take it that the piece does not have a country listed.  If not, it could be an ancient coin.  Go to www.ebay.com and do a search for Roman coin or Ancient coin and see what is being sold with pictures and maybe you can match up with what you have?  If not try a similar search at www.google.com.  Hope this helped, Jim Lawniczak
