"That's NO' the way you make porridge!"
And that's not the way you make coins of Carus and/or Carinus, either together or separately.
For me, at least, the style is obviously wrong.

Interesting coin. Is this a copy of a known genuine coin or a fantasy piece?

This is not a fantasy piece, the genuine coin is very rare and expensive (not in Ed's collection ).

This one is genuine:

I'm still new to this so thanks for clearing that up. I can see the obvious difference between the genuine coin and the fake, thanks for posting.

Eddop: Thanks for the education and the picture.
I implied that Carus and Carinus don't appear together. I was wrong.
