Hello and welcome.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news in reply to your first post here on the forum, but your coin is not a real coin. It is designed to resemble an ancient Greek coin; "coins" like this can be found for sale throughout the Middle East in the tourist-rap marketplaces, often in the vicinity of famous ancient ruins (such as Ephesus in Turkey, or the Pyramids in Egypt). In such countries, selling genuine ancient coins to tourists is illegal, but selling fakes, replicas and fantasy coins like this one is perfectly fine.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis
