What's this?

Does anyone know what kind of coin this is and what it's worth?

Post it in the ancient coins forum- they'll be able to explain.

 

Please post a bit more information:
- what is the weight of the coin
- what is the diameter of the coin
- how did you get it?

For easier identification, I've combined both pictures into one.


The coin shows similarity with this one:

It may be fake. I found a similar one in the fakes section of the FORVM:

When I click on the links, I see images of Sasanian coins.

The OP is definitely Antoichos IV, based on the reverse inscription, but I have no opinion as to its authenticity.

 

Weird.

It's a fantasy imitating Antiochus VI, he minted no gold coins. It's value is essentially zero.
