Did I miss something?
Why exactly is this condemned?

I always have problems to understand you, because you ask questions which have been already answered and others including me seem to understand the answers.
While I was writing Altamura has already answered, but I do not want to delete so maybe some points written by Altamura will be now repeated in my post.
What we have is fake of a tetradrachm with artificial patina, this type does not exist in bronze!
The coin is vey likely a cast fake, too.
There are bronze coins of Akragas with crab and eagle but they do not have the double spiral on the reverse and more important no legend on the obverse (you can see some letter on the obverse).
What speaks against authenticity:
artificial patina, wrong metal, type doesn´t exist in bronze only in Silver as tetradrachm
What speaks for authenticity
NOOOOOOTHING NOOTHING, bad tourist fake
