Possibly Islamic coin - ID? [решено]

Hello,
Does anyone know what this is? My first guess was it’s one of those Crimean coins but I couldn’t find it. Any idea?

diameter: 26.5mm
thickness: 0.7mm
weight: 3.32g
metal: bronze?

I tried to rotate it, but I do not recognize anything familiar

Well, I was sort of totally convinced I saw some Arabic letters...and looks like I was totally wrong about that.

I get that the hole is not in the upper part of the coin, on neither side, but I still don’t see which way I’m supposed to look at it? I think I see the two kings but it’s a little hard to discern the details.

The coin itself is nice though! Had no idea it could be from 12th century Hungary. I just wish it wasn’t so worn...
