Hi. 

I am greatful for any help to identify this coin. 

Details 11mm 0,3 gram - so its very small. I canty read the text.

Im not an expert on these coins, but I think it could be a coin from Hungary (sth like a Denar or so). Im not sure but your coin reminds me of them.

Thanks , searched after your reply - It looks similar to Lajos the great. So a good guess is hungarian, but wich?

The commonly seen “Moor's head” denar of Lajos I has the head facing left.  

 

I think you need to take the side with the head and rotate it almost 180 degrees to see the head come into this alignment (at first I thought the head faced right).  Normallythe legend reads MONETA LODOVICI and I am having a hard time seeing this (after what looks like the A at the end of the first word, I am seeing DIVID).  Also it seems to be both smal and light (normally closer to 14 mm and  0.5 - 0.6 grams).
