 there are members here who are knowledgeable about ancients unfortunately I'm not one of them. It may take a while for them to see and chime in. -MV

Maybe a moderator can move this to the Ancients forum.

I'm not liking the look of this coin. It's most likely counterfeit. Can you provide better pictures as well as the weight and diameter please.

 with zxcccxz. That was my first 'gut reaction' when looking at the pictures. It looks 'coppery'. The fields are rough and the details indistinct. I have a 'black collection' of about 100 fake ancient coins, and my inclination would be to put it in that part of my collection.

 Definitely a "tourist copy". Cast, porous appearance and it's made of the wrong metal. Eastern Europe, and Bulgaria in particular, is a notorious place for fake ancient coins. It's perfectly legal to make and sell fake ancient coins in Bulgaria.

Welcome to the forum.
In terms of the coin above I agree it is fake. Even though I do not specialise in this type of coin I can say with some confidence it is fake due to the Porous and Coppery appearance.
