I do know absolutely nothing about this piece.
Is it a coin?
Sorry, I have no dimensions or weight

It looks cast, so I think it's a fantasy piece.

What I have been told by Klaupo:
It is neither a coin nor a replica, but a toy, based on the reverse of a Macedonian tetradrachm of Philipp II. On the right scan you can read the greek letters FILIP - POU. As far as I know this was a promotion gag added into coffee boxes in the 70-ies.
