Is this a coin or token

Hi Everyone,

I am posting for a friend. Does anyone recognize this? Thank you for your time.

Hello I need help, it is a homemade freestyle medal, inspired on ancient coins maybe, but at the most a few decades old. What’s the metal?

 

Thank you for the response. The metal has not been tested.

 

Someone practicing their skills making "Hobo Nickels" ?

 

I don't know ancients...but (to me) it looks like an aluminum punch-out that someone used to practice their artwork.

 

Thank you for the ideas, I’m likely not to find another, but if I do, will update.

 

Welcome, @I need help! ...Hope you stay here ...for, what, the tea and biscuits.
@Pellinore was definitely in the right neighborhood. This is looking a Lot like the last couple of waves of fake early medieval coins to have shown up on US ebay over the last too many years. Generally from various former Warsaw Pact countries. And All of them laughable, purely on stylistic grounds ...right up until they fool someone.

 

I will take a dozen, please. And, wrap them to go.

 

...Sure you don't want coffee with that?

 

The important question here is "do they work in vending machines?"

 

...Just, Yessss!

 

Dear @I need help, welcome to CT.

I think your "cat" friend is trying to yank your chain. You know cats can't be trusted!

On the other hand, if this "friend" is your owner, I would nip him/her the next time he/she tries to pet you!

 

Lol, I’ll hang around a bit, I just don’t get many coins,
Thanks for the feedback!

 

“I’m just holding this for a friend”
Never worked with my parents either!

 

What did you say about me?

 

Very Sweet!

 

Can you please tell me what this coin is, maybe it’s a replica of that?

 

...To cut to the chase, along with the pseudo-Roman one in your lower picture, they're both, mercifully Gawd-Freaking-Awful fakes.

 

Thanks, so it’s a fake of a fake!
