montesinos7 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 09/21/2013 1:23 pm Hello everyone, I have two old coins that I think are probably fake but I am interested in where they are from and their worth. They are extremely hard to describe so I will post pictures here and hope someone can guide me! Thanks !

Even so they'll need bigger and better pictures to work from and, if you can manage it the weight and diameter will really help to ID your coins. Report this Post to the Staff
Tom Goodheart Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 856 Posts	Posted 09/21/2013 2:33 pm I'm afraid Coin 1 looks like a replica and seems to be stamped "COPY" .. the second .. unsure. As abr says, better photos will help people tell for certain. Report this Post to the Staff

philadelphian Pillar of the Community United States 3253 Posts	Posted 09/22/2013 11:11 am The important thing is to make sure your camera is on the "macro" setting, which gives you a clear close-up. After that, use the forum's "Frre Image Optimizer" to crop the area around the coin. That said, the small cross in the large blank field on your first coin suggest an Anglo-Saxon penny. That large blank field on yours seems not quite blank, though. Do I see the stamped letters "COPY" there? Report this Post to the Staff
