A modern cast fake. This seller has a large variety of coins that appear to all be modern cast fakes. I have seen a few in hand and they are quite unconvincing in hand. The metal feels wrong and generally has artificial patination. The coins show casting pits and bubbles under magnification. There is an edge seam and there has been an attempt to obliterate this edge seam by filing the edge of the coin. All these factors are easily seen in hand. I have posted my own, more detailed images of the coin to the reports which is of greater resolution and the surface issues can be clearly seen.
