This coin is a modern replica of a 165 AD Rome (Imp III, PARTH MAX), Lucius Verus (161-169) Sestertius. The style and design is “not of period” and is essentially a fantasy as no known coin of Lucius Verus has these design characteristics.
This token was struck by machine, a technology that didn’t exist in the 2nd century AD. It also seems to be gold plated brass, with the plating wearing off in spots. I see that this token has been holed and repaired. I’ll guess that this piece was part of a jewelry creation that has been separated from the rest of its parts.
