I found this a kid...and then again in my attic. I research and understand it is a tetradrachm. Can anyone tell whether this is a real or fake? Thank you.

From the pictures, it looks like there's some paint/coating that's rubbed off, such as on the cheek? Is that the case?

Hello and welcome.

Sorry to eb a downer with your first post here on the forum, but your coin is, unfortunately, not a genuine ancient coin. It is an exact match for a replica found in the FORVM database of fakes: https://www.forumancientcoins.com/f...layimage.php
