plonker Valued Member United States 462 Posts	Posted 07/04/2013 8:01 pm I bought this recently from ebay and was wondering if anyone has any comments on the authenticity. The reason I ask is the edge is very worn out and the inscription is barely visible. The weight is 16.64g and the specification is 16.667g as per http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces15896.html Comparing to the above I don't see much issue with the look and feel. Also it resonates like silver, however as mentioned elsewhere this may not be a fool proof test. Report this Post to the Staff

plonker Valued Member United States 462 Posts	Posted 07/06/2013 1:32 pm Hi Bacchus2, thanks for taking a look. I was concerned about the edge as it was so faint as if someone just scrape the edge all around. I think I will keep it and also I have my eyes on a lubeck 2 marks and Hesse 3 marks :) Report this Post to the Staff
