Can someone help me identify this coin. Thanks!
It depicts Roman emperor Nero. It is one of the Greek language issues. I'm no expert in these so that is all I know about it. I also can't say whether it is authentic or not.
Nero AR Tetradrachm of Antioch, Syria.
This is a known cast counterfeit. Check the edge for a seam.
CIVITAS is correct; this one is a "tourist copy". Exact matches can be found on the FORVM fakes database, such as here: forumancientcoins.com/fakes/displayimage.php?pos=-17079
