    I was at my grandfathers house and I was looking for his old coins that he has collected. I came across this coin. (Picture) Not sure if it is worth anything or what it is even about. I have searched the web and haven't been able to find much information about it, so any info would be great! Let me know if you need better pictures.

    Welcome to the mystery of ancient history! Boy, it's hard to tell with these pics. Could ya take it out of that plastic and get close ups on the obverse and reverse. As well, any chance you have the weight?

    Edge pics too. Looks like a seam.

    Hopefully the reverse doesn't match the off-centered "strike" we see in these documented fakes here. Certainly the flan shape seems close...

    Sorry, kfox. It is is a modern creation-- a cast coin matching the one shown above by BobL :(.
