Hello everyone! I found this euro and felt “light”. Is it counterfeit? (The one on the left)

Welcome to Numista,

 

Your coin is very damaged and since you don't give us any factual indications of the weight of the coin, it's impossible to help you any further.

Hi, the coin weights 7g and its width is 2mm

I believe you should invest in a caliper and scale with precisions of 0.01 mm or gram.

 

Did you look your coin up in our catalog?

Yes, precision calipers and scale would help establish the coin's authenticity (or lack thereof)…

 

If OP is an avid collector aforesaid tools may be worth the investment, otherwise not so much.

 

PS: to me it looks like a normal euro coin with a case of road rash.
