Guessing weight of 23.2 grams is not a good sign ?

I don't know, but it's really pretty either real or fake.

Comparing it to the KM picture I don't see any immediate flaws. Toning is odd on the obverse though. Cool coin, hope it's real.

Looks OK to me, Does it weigh 25 Grammes ? is the diameter 37mm ?
