I suggest you post much better / larger images of the obverse and reverse of the piece. (No need to include the scale in the new images.)

Good photos are essential for a good opinion.

Looks like this but better photos would be required to determine if it is real

@ayf, I agree that better pics would make the determination if this is fake or not easier. However, I'm pretty sure that real Fugio Cents weigh less than the 14.8g that you are showing.

"I have this coin" is frequently later revealed to mean "I got this at a flea market". I don't know it that applies in this case, but the likelihood of this coin being genuine is zero.
