Please explain why you suspect it.  (Along with weight and diameter, which you did include, the reason for your suspicion should be included whenever you ask here.)

Hi Joe;
I didn't find any Ref.regarding this coin.In hand it looks very sharp ,there is spot of dark very sticky patina .The bearded head is so unusual that's why i had doubt about it.
Thanks for your contribution
