Is this a real Decadrachm of Syracuse coin or is it a fake? How much is it worth if it is real? Thanks

Pretty sure that is a modern fake version. Real ones are silver and have a sharper image.
a real one looks like this:

It appears to be cast rather than struck, meaning it would be fake. Look closely at the edge for a casting seam or signs of a seam being removed.

Looks like a cast to me. Very mushy details and sandy surfaces are a giveaway.
