Looks Celtic to me. How much did you pay for it? What was the coin listed as Welcome to the forum btw. The guys here have a lot of experience ID'ing coins so that shouldn't be too much of a problem. You don't have your country listed (orgin), so it's hard to point you in the right direction. if your in the U.S. I'd say try a coin dealer in the area. If your overseas, the laws are really different, so I can't help you there.

i paid about 40 usd. The guy didn't have any idea what it was. apparently it was found in Italy but im not sure where, he wasn't very descriptive in his listing.

thanks for the help!

I think it is medieval Papal States, Italy. Something like this:

do we think this is real?

the seller seems reputable, and they are not insanely valuable.
