Thank you friends!
An acquaintance asked, but he did not know how to argue, besides the irregular weight.

The metal doesn't look silver , might be lead of some other metal. Actual weight for a genuine example should be 43 grams.

One must consider ALWAYS that a silver greek coin is fake unless you can demostrate that is genuine...

You will save a lot of money following this rule!
