DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 03/12/2013 12:56 am Question...is this coin cast or struck? It almost looks cast, as was the case for early Semis and As. Report this Post to the Staff
DavidUK Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2624 Posts	Posted 03/12/2013 06:58 am Its struck I believe. There are no casting lines which I can see and the metal is perfect. It came from a dealer I visit who is local to me, he always chats for a while and he asked me if I had any cast ones when I bought this. Apparently there is a huge cast Greek that I would like.
