One clue: reverse clearly seen is IACOB (12:00 to 5:00), Latin for James. So, could be a Jaime of SPain, or a James of Scotland?

The double barred cross was also used in medieval Aragon.

Your obverse legend is ARA GON, and reverse legend starts with IACOB. Based on size, I think you have a dinero of Jaime of Aragon, close to this one:
