Sure, its a Byzantine Gold Solidus of Justinian I 527-565 AD. Looks like a nice, original coin to me. Byzantine gold is fairly common. I think its about a $250 - $300.00 coin.

Let me know if you want more specific info about the legends/obverse/reverse. It might take me a few days, but I can get it for you.

Can you get the letters of the legend on the obverse and post them here? I'm pretty sure its an example of Justinian I AV Solidus. DN IVSTINI-ANVS PP AVC, helmeted facing bust, holding globus cruciger / VICTORI-A AVCCC, angel standing facing with long cross & globus cruciger; * Q/CONOB. DOC I 8d But I can't be sure until I know what the legend says.
