If the coin really was from 87 BC, the people who minted it could not have known about the existence of such a date. They would have had no reason or means to label it as "from 87 BC".
The answer is no, the coin could not be genuine, for the following reason:
"Before our Common Era" (BC) is part of the Christian era, which begins with the birth of Jesus Christ.
This designation of time did not come into use until centuries later.
