Possibly, but only if the museum had multiple orders made from different dies. The details on the pictured coin and your coin are quite different.

In my first picture, I think the flash from my mobile phone gave it a bit of a different hue. Here it is without the flash. Considering that my grandfather lived his entire life in Slovenia, I'd say that's probably another possible clue that the coin is a replica from the Slovene national museum. But you are right, there appear to still be some differences between the two...so no idea where this would originate from ultimately, at least not conclusively

 I might have solved the mystery. It appears to be the replica issued by Slovene National Museum of the golden coin they hold.

Looks fake to me. And not a very good fake, either.

Yeah, that's what it looks like even to my amateur eyes...just wanted to have someone more experienced confirm it, since I've got no real knowledge of coins.

Hello everyone. I'm a total newbie when it comes to coins. Was searching through my grandfather's collection and found this. With some search I found that this "should" be an Alexander stater coin, but is this a legit one or a forgery? Thank you for your help!
