MarcusCoins Valued Member Canada 80 Posts	Posted 07/10/2015 09:15 am Hello coin community! Recently bought this at auction, where it was sold as "Roman Arrowhead". I don't think it's roman, but rather parthian. Unfortunetly, I'm basing my conclusions on very little. Can anyone shine some light on this? What's it rarety/value etc? Weight: 32g Length: 74mm/7.4cm Material: Bronze Origin: ? Thanks for any answers! Already being discussed in the Ancient/Medieval coin section-echizento Report this Post to the Staff

I think it may be Chinese.

Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 07/10/2015 10:20 am Certainly could be, although I do like seeing that encrustation above the socket..although that could, of course, just be dirt applied to simulate an aged look. I recommend getting opinions regarding authenticity over on the Ancients board. Edited by Kamnaskires 07/10/2015 10:22 am Report this Post to the Staff
