    It is a modern cast counterfeit of a Philistian imitation.

    IMHO, the OP coin is as fake as a three dollar bill.

    Wish I could find stuff like that here in North America. Anything over 400 years old is stone age crud.

    :) You need set the depth for items before stone age, UFO parts for sample... or go to ebay auctions
