Hello all,
I was told that this might be the correct topic for the coin I have recently come into ownership of. Can anyone here identify this coin? Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Hard to tell much with photos that aren't well cropped. Looks to be perhaps a casting and maybe also a little too perfectly round to be genuine. I'd want to know how it was acquired before I gave it any credence.

Your "ancient coin" is, unfortunately, a replica. It is trying to imitate a silver coin of ancient Babylon under Greek rule, but the design details are just wrong.

Here's a fuzzy collage of one, with obverse stamp, discussed years ago on Forum's fakes board.
