Need help with a large copper coin

I found this locally. Again, sorry for the lame pic's...I am using an older cell phone to take the pics, so no adjustments. It appears to be about the size of a large cent, and about as thick. The front has a chalice on it, with what looks to be grapes at the top. The righting looks to be middle eastern, Hebrew, I am not sure? The back side is hard to make out...maybe a tree or branch? Also, more writing around the edges. I have not soaked it in anything yet, just used some water, soap and a soft brush to remove the caked dirt. Any ideas,. again searched for hours without luck.
 
Im not 100% but do a google search for isreal coin with chalice. it looks like it could be one of those but without better pics it is hard to tell. maybe you can judge it better. GL HH
 
I searched yesterday and last night, and seen the Isreal coins...the one is simular...but definitely not the same. Not to mention they are ancient coins, from like year 4 or something. No way would something that old be here in DE. I was thinking of trying to match up the letters to something online to see what it says.
