It is a countermarked coin.

The practice of "countermarking" coins,
or stamping additional elements of design to a coin after it had originally been
struck, was widespread throughout much of antiquity. This was particularly
common in the provinces of the Roman Empire. Exactly when and why individual
countermarks were applied is often difficult say with any certainty.
Countermarks were applied to coins for many reasons, including revaluation,
reaffirmation of validity, and propaganda.

On this coin: Tiberius' and Claudius' countermarks. The TI CAE (Tiberius Caesar) refers to the emperor Tiberius Caesar.

I can't see enough detail on your coin to identify. My best guess is possibly Ottoman Empire coin.
