 :) This is the counterfeit of Hungarian denar, and the lettering is unreadable.

​I think so too. The shield in the middle of the obverse are the Austrian bonds so it should be a Austrian ruler. I see a "X" on the obverse so it could be Maximilian II but the rest of the letters don't fit and are as far as I can tell unreadable.

Do you think it's a modern fake. Or fake from that time?

​A fake from that time. They're actually pretty common and are regularly found with coins from that period. :)
