Any ideas about this coin? I think it's ancient.

    Hello everybody! Below are pictures of a coin I found 20 years ago. Any ideas what it could be?

    Not exactly sure, but whatever it is, it is a fake, a replica of a medieval type coin.

    Since it says on one side:

    Philippus comes nassau (Philip Count of Nassau)

    The other:

    Moneta (money) Opidi (county) Sarbrugens

    I assume this is supposed to be a coin of Philip Graf (count) von Nassau-Saarbrücken? which it is, of course, not...its a modern machine struck (dies machine made) fake.
