Sap Moderator Australia 16868 Posts	Posted 05/25/2008 08:56 am I agree that it seems to be a reproduction. The lettering is too erratically different to what you'd expect and the reverse figure is very crudely drawn. Here's one that looks a lot more convincing. The reverse of your coin may have been copied off this one, or one very much like it - the die cracks and flaws around the "C" in COS appear to be identical. Except, of course, the obverses don't match: yours has the radiate crown on an antoninianus, not the wreath of a denarius. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
