✅ SOLVED Unknown coin type object?

[toma]

Has anyone seen or have have a guess to what this interesting coin type object is? It is approx. 1 11/16" in diameter. I believe it is made of copper or bronze.

I'd say it's a replica ancient coin, but I can't answer what it is attempting to copy. hmmmm I wonder if it''s the same as the one posted here with the mega-thread.


Edit: Think the one I'm thinking of had a full horse head. I'm curious if it's the same bust though.


Edit again: Here's the one I was thinking of.

Appears to be based on the Syracruse (Sicily) Silver Decadrachms of Kimon and Euainetos.

There are some differences between yours and other "examples" I saw online, and not sure yet whether they made copper/brass/bronze versions of this coin.

Hi. With your help I found one exactly like it on a coin site. Seems it is a cast copy of a decadrachm. Decadrachm's were never made of copper only silver. Thanks a bunch..
