I found an old romanian coin in the gras at a backyard where a market was many years ago, the coin is made from [alama] but i can't read the year, i see "18--" can anybody tell me the year the this coin was made?

Thank you

It seems it is a "10 bani" coin issued in 1867.

You're welcome.
I don't know how much it is worth, I guess you should check at an antique shop or with a friend who is a numismatist. On this site a "10 bani" coin from 1867 is for sale at € 4:
