It looks bad I know! However, I would appreciate some comment on this piece. The old 1974 Seabys does mention AE or white metal.

A test cut on the edge indeed reveals silvery/lead alloy.  Comments very welcome...

It is a fairly well documented fake. A genuine example would be gold. The first example below is your coin from FAC fake gallery and the second is another example.
