Is this a real Alexander?

Does anyone see anything off about this coin that gives it away as being a fake? Does anyone think it's authentic?

Looks like it was someone's pocket piece for a while.

 

Thanks for your replies.

 

genuine

 

How can you tell?

 

Not soapy or cast. Its pretty apparent. How much is it for?

 

The seller is selling it as a fake. I personally don't see any thing wrong with it, but I figured since I'm relatively new to anceint coins that it would be a good idea to ask first.

 

It's a known cast forgery. I recall seeing it on forgerynetwork, but can't find it again. I remember it being the width of a tetradrachm, but only 6 grams.

 

Thanks!

 

It’s a forgery.
