pishpash Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 3626 Posts	Posted 09/03/2015 10:33 pm Can anyone help me ID this coin. Not yet received, I have checked wildwinds, acsearch and coinproject but can't find a match. It looks to me like Hygia feeding a serpent. Seller says it is around 30mm no weight given.

pishpash Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 3626 Posts	Posted 09/04/2015 02:43 am Thanks BD. Mine was £6.05 and not worth any more, I just thought it a fun piece. Report this Post to the Staff
Athalbert Pillar of the Community Spain 629 Posts	Posted 09/04/2015 05:49 am Are you really sure that it´s a genuine coin? I think that it´s very "ugly" (lack of details, pits over the surfaces...), I suspect that could be a cast copy, but of course I´m judging only with a photograph... Report this Post to the Staff
pishpash Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 3626 Posts	Posted 09/04/2015 06:44 am I won't know until I have it in hand. At the price I am not bothered either way. Yes, I agree with you, it is very ugly! Report this Post to the Staff
chrsmat71 Pillar of the Community United States 4966 Posts	Posted 09/04/2015 11:57 am i would guess it's just a worn coin...maybe one that was some weakness in the strike to begin with. Report this Post to the Staff
pishpash Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 3626 Posts	Posted 09/09/2015 07:42 am It doesn't look as bad as the photograph, still not beautiful though! It weighs 18.27g so is the lightest of the sesterti on Wildwinds RIC 694. Report this Post to the Staff
