Is that an anchor on the non-couter stamped side?

Unfortunetly I can't make out the host coin, its pretty far gone for a positive ID, but with the weight diameter it could significantly improve the odds. The counter stamp is very interesting I appears to be a bust, of which one could narrow it down to Roman Provincials and bronze, and a good place to start.

Try soaking it for a while, it might help bring out some of the detail if there is any left.

to the community.

When you want information on a coin it's best to start your own thread. To answer your question the coin is not real.
