This looks to be an imitation of an ancient coin. It does not appear to be authentic. If you try reposting this in the ancients section, someone may be able to give you more information.

For now, looks like you have a counterfeit.

 

That's what I think as well but figured I would ask anyway. Thanks!

 

Perhaps a medal of some sort?

 

It looks like you have a medal. I will ask my room mates dad to look at it for you because he is a expert on medals. My area of expertise is mainly rare proof gold.

 

Either that or an administrator can move it to the Ancients forum.

 

No need.......nothing ancient about that.

 

I can remove it if it's in the wrong place.

 

I think that's beyond your job description

 

@Smojo , @Bing, @Curtisimo, and there are plenty more knowledgeable folk, visit them on the dark side.

@GDJMSP can probably move it.

 

I agree with @physics-fan3.14 it doesn't fit in with anything and appearance isn't right either. JMHO though

 

I agree with others above that it looks modern. I am certainly no expert though so that's JMHO

I have also not seen anything quite like it. I would guess the subjects to be Athena facing right and Medusa/Gorgon facing. At first I thought maybe Sinope but I found no matches in the quick searches I did so I'm not even sure what it's attempting to immitate. Perhaps someone else will chime in and shed some light on what it could be.

Sorry I can't be of more help.

 

I thought it was the Ellington Lincoln.

 

He needs an Lincoln Lawyer........

 

Look at the edge. Some medals have an inscription, like this:
