This coin appears to be a likeness of a Tetradachm (BC 280 - 250) Nikomedes I, Kingdom of Bithynia. It matches the description below.

It looks similar to this actual coin

An historic area, Bithynia; on the south side of the Black Sea and on the east side of the Bosporus; opposite Thrace and (Istanbul) on the west side. Admittedly, I'm skeptical about this coin; it looks TOO good. Hope I'm wrong; and if wrong, you have a very valuable coin.
Don..
