Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 02/17/2015 5:04 pm Unfortunately, no, we could not tell "for sure." We could simply offer our opinions, for what they are worth. I think the idea of getting it professionally graded is smart in this case. Let us know the results, please. Report this Post to the Staff

Ancientnoob Pillar of the Community United States 5155 Posts	Posted 03/09/2015 09:09 am NGC doesn't authenticate ancients. They don't slabs cast coins, Indian coins, Chinese coins or Persian coins. Report this Post to the Staff
Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 03/09/2015 10:23 am James, I'd recommend beginning with an email inquiry here (if link works): http://www.allexperts.com/user.cgi?...7&catID=2297 That is the inquiry form from lakdivacoins, where one of the links I sent you earlier, with a similar plaque, was posted. That site specializes in coins of Ceylon throughout history. Your plaque, if genuine, is from Ceylon. Bob Report this Post to the Staff

FVRIVS RVFVS Pillar of the Community United States 3444 Posts	Posted 03/10/2015 07:40 am Wiped with a silver cloth ? I think you mean you polished it ? If so you have 'schmucked' it up good ! DO NOT CLEAN also means DO NOT POLISH ! Almost every dealer in coins that I know has had the "pleasure" of a widow bringing in her late husbands coins for disposal. Often the person has whipped out the silver polish to make those 'dirty' old coins look pretty ....... to her that is ! Mistakes are common ! Learn from them ! Report this Post to the Staff
