Your coin seems to be from Cilicia.
Size?
Weight?

Cilicia, uncertain mint. AR Hemiobol 4th C. BC. Facing veiled female bust / Bust of Herakles l. Troxell-Kagan 21; Klein 644.

I would be surprised if this coin is really authentic, the style of the Facing veiled female bust is really really crude.

With best regards
