    I don't know if it is real or a replica. I deal in jewelry and occasionally get an ancient coin (or replica) set in gold. Thank you so much for your help identifying it, whether it looks real, and if so what the value is. IMG_4077.JPG IMG_4079.JPG

    Just a fantasy piece. Athena on one side, bow and club on reverse, but the lettering is gibberish. I've seen this particular inset in other jewelry.

    it's a replica, or ...i'm not sure what it's imitating exactly...maybe more of a fantasy piece with ancient elements.

    Way too perfect to be a real ancient. Something from Hong Kong on Ebay?

    I was going to say this, but you beat me to it.

    This might indeed from ebay Hong Kong but there are Perfect Ancient Coins that would put this to shame.

    Indeed, but they sure as heck wouldn't be in a bezel - at least I hope not!!
