Personally I don't like the look of it. It has a reverse for Constantius II as Caesar but on the obverse he is portrayed as Augustus. However I don't know enough about these coins to determine whether it is authentic (and some sort of mule) or not.

This does not look anything but modern to me. I would be very surprised
if those with greater knowledge do not declare this to be a modern fake.
