Cleopatra coin

I found this coin with my FIL things after he passed away. I looked on-line and it said something like from 105BC, but thought that couldn’t be true. Does this coin look real? Can you tell me anything about it?

Looks like a cast fake. Note the soft blotchy surfaces, and what looks like a casting seam around the edge.

 

your second picture looks like it has a casting seam; which would mean it is not genuine. Can you post a pic of the sides?

 

Great, there goes my retirement fund. Glad I didn’t quit my day job.

 

Hi All,

A well known fake. See https://www.cointalk.com/threads/cleopatra-coin.321239/

Thanks Broucheion.
Well the internet says it’s worth $5000 (and the internet doesn’t lie), so if you want to buy it I’ll sell it to you at a reduced cost of $1500.

 

Hi @KiloTango,

, right.
