The only thing i can make out looks to be an M with a cross above?
Only thing that comes to mind is a miraculous medal.

I see It was IDd while i was typing.

I agree it's a Byzantine era coin, but I'm no good at IDing them. It is however, pretty unlikely to be off a ship wreck.

The coin is a 'follis'. The denomination is 40 'nummi', represented by the letter "M"--in the Greek numbering system.
