Hi there!
Actually I did t find it today and I don't when! I was checking the ugly coins and this one was mixed with them:dontknow:
I tried to find info but without success. If any one can help me ID this coin, it would be great. 2020-12-23_22.49.38.webp

It's a Byzantine silver coin.
 

If the reverse shows only two people, it might be Dusan and his wife Helena. If it shows three people, I'm stumped.
Obverse: Dusan on horseback facing, round crowned, in loros, holding cruciform scepter. Serbian legend: СФb ZP (SF - ZR (STEFAN CZAR)) above.
The reverse usually shows only the bust of Christ facing, holding akakia, siglas N-O to the lower sides. Greek letters: IC XC (In Greek: Ιησούς Χριστός - Jesus Christ) above.
This stamp should now look familiar: https://colnect.com/en/stamps/stamp/376319-Car_Dusan_14jh-Silver_Coins-Yugoslavia

Looks like a templar coin to me. Knights Templar took an oath of poverty and rode two knights per horse.
