to the family, from a fellow Swede (1/2 at least!)

No expert on ancients but first impression is its fake, too perfectly round. Will follow when experts arrive!

Thank you, Crazyb0!

It actually looks "rounder" on the pic than in reality. Might sound strange, but I guess it's the angle... It's a bit oval. And the edges look pretty "worn". Hmmm... I'm new to ancient coins though, so really don't have a clue... :-)
I can take more pictures tomorrow!

If you look at the lower right corner on the reverse you will see the letter C for copy. Sorry not a real coin.
