Andi10 Valued Member Romania 56 Posts	Posted 01/30/2023 6:12 pm So,if I understood well,the general opinion is that I have a modern copy/fake,even if it is silver made! Thanks for your replies but please,one more thing: can you show me photos of 100% genuine Lysimachos drachm(s),to compare differencies... Thanks again! Report this Post to the Staff
