Somehow it looks a bit too round to be of the Roman era. Maybe a replica or souvenir coin?

It looks home made...with a high brass content, if not all brass. It all looks a bit too cartoonish and contrived... Could be completely wrong but Im going with tourist souvenir also...cleaned with steel wool...also a sign that its known to have no value
