Arkie Pillar of the Community United States 2637 Posts	Posted 07/07/2015 6:24 pm 2.56 grams, 18.3 mm. Caesar looks real young -- at least in hand. Report this Post to the Staff

Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 07/07/2015 6:36 pm Perhaps Caracalla with Minerva and trophy reverse, similar to this: http://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/rom...Default.aspx Report this Post to the Staff
Arkie Pillar of the Community United States 2637 Posts	Posted 07/07/2015 6:42 pm Everything I read on the inscription looks right on. Thanks! Does the fact it is a gram lighter than the example you found mean mine is a fake? I don't see a seam on the rim. Edited by Arkie 07/07/2015 6:43 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 07/07/2015 7:02 pm I suspect the coin is fine, but will defer to the many Roman experts who frequent this board. Report this Post to the Staff
Ben Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 4208 Posts	Posted 07/07/2015 7:10 pm From these pictures it looks fine, if somewhat corroded and chipped (which explains the weight deficiency). Evidence of casting, however, is in the finer detail. Report this Post to the Staff
echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 07/07/2015 8:09 pm It does appear to be Caracalla, the coin looks fine just worn and clipped which would explain the weight difference. Report this Post to the Staff
