Hi guys please help me identify this coin.
I found it with a metal detector in Slovakia.
It appears to be Roman but its in too good shape to be that old I think.

I think you are right. It looks like a modern fantasy piece based on a Roman coin, but we have Roman coin experts on the forum who will confirm.

The IUPPITER CUSTOS side is copied from a coin of Emperor Nero and the other side appears to be later, medieval perhaps. Looks to me like a Nuremberg jeton, but I've not tracked it down yet.
