Need help identifying this coin [opgelost]

Please help me to identify this coin.  Looks like tetradrachm but apparently made of copper or bronze and is quite big: ~30mm , ~13 gr  

 

Could not find any information about it online. 

 

Is it fake? 

 

 

That is a guaranteed fake.

 

Majority of drachms are made of silver, few others from bronze. There is no trace of bronze patina on your coin for a 2000 years old coin. Impossible. 

 

On your coin, Athens look like a meth addict and owl looks like enjoying fresh fentanyl dose

 

I cant imagine this coin in Ancient greece, this would be a mockery to gods and punishable by death.

 

In “Golden Age” of Athens, and even after, beauty was celebrated and worshipped, so this kind of disgusting image of Athens is not possible

 

 

If you are into ancient Greece coins, and have money, get some slabbed NGC pieces to have piece of mind. They are relatively abundant and in various price ranges

Thank you for a great description :) 

I also thought it must be fake but wanted ask to be sure I am not missing something.
