Okay, so I went hunting around and Google searched using the image and I think I found the original image of the auction, which claims it's a ZZ Byzantine Empire. Romanus 1 920-944 AD coin; I searched for a Byzantine coin gallery, but could only find gold Romanus 1 coins, which are in the correct time date according to the information. http://www.bidorbuy.co.za/item/129690764/ZZ_BYZANTINE_EMPIRE_ROMANUS_I_920_944_AD_AE_FOLLIS _SUPERB.html
But what we see there is the bronze coin, I believe, so I'm not sure how much it might be worth or if that truly is what it is. You might need to take it to a coin specialist who might have a better idea if it's in your possession, or contact someone and show them the pictures. I think it's the only way you'll be sure if you can't find an official catalog with a picture of one! Good luck.
