Don't know much about ancients but I'd venture a guess with authentic.

I have doubts about this piece, most coins from Rhodes have the Rose Bud reverse. I've not seen any with this reverse and the legend doesn't appear to spell anything. I not and expert in this area but IMO it's not real.

Doesn't look familiar at all and the artistic style does not look ancient. Soft devices appear cast. Plus... 37 grams? Really?

No idea what it is supposed to be. Fantasy piece?

I think fantasy piece, cast. Looks well done, but stylistically odd.

The style feels wrong and the details a little too sloppy.

Wow! The odd-ball things people come up with for advertising. This is modern and a complete fantasy. It is a 'metalo' struck for King Cesar!?!

Cheers!
