I've got one that looks identical to this. It forms part of a set of reproductions of ancient coins that I was given in the late 1960s when I'd just started collecting.

The edge shows a casting seam, which is the best sign of a cast fake you can hope to find.

The line alone the edge which can clearly been seen here is a sure sign that the coin is a fake.
