Fake Coin

[scotsman 2]

Hi was giving this this a while back been told it's fake from what little research I've done am I right in thinking it's meant to be a silver tetradrachm ? from looking at other images of similar coins on google the owl is quite crude which surprised me I thought if your were going to fake it they would have done a better job any ideas on the material pewter ? would be interesting to see other members fake coins I'm sure there must be a few

It doesn't have that 'usual' pewter look about it?

Could it be lead free pewter ? it really does feel and look like silver

Not my series but there certainly were many barbarous imitations of earlier "popular" coins....

As a piece of art it's laughable

I agree Copper it doesn't do anything for me especially that owl
