Maybe be a fake, I'm not sure. I've had this one for a while. 

 

Looks similar to some Greek and indo Greek coinage, But I cannot get a good ID. One dealer I spoke to said he had no idea and it may be a fake because of the corrosion. I think he may be right. Nonetheless, here it is.

 

Any help is appreciated.

Possibly any clearer images?

I am more experienced in the field of ancient and chinese coins, south-east asian coins included too!

Indo-Scythian, proper identification is difficult, but potentially Azes I/II or similar:

So I was able to get a XRF test done on the coin, providing me with these results. This is lower than the expected percent I think?
