I am trying to identify a coin for a friend of mine. We know NOTHING about it and any clues or known details would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to all. Rob.

This looks like it could be a False Shekel.

This isn't a standard "false shekel" design, but it is nevertheless a modern replica of an ancient Jewish coin. This one's from the Second Revolt period. You can see a similar piece in this thread.
