Spence Moderator United States 34427 Posts	Posted 04/09/2017 1:02 pm @diamondzacx, first welcome to CCF. Second, can you please also post a pic of the edge of your coin? This piece is oddly round, with a rim that I think isn't usually found on the coins of ancient Rome.

maridvnvm Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2100 Posts	Posted 04/09/2017 2:22 pm I am afraid that your coin is a modern tourist quality fake. It is as far from an ancient coin is as Monopoly money is from real currency. Report this Post to the Staff
Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 04/09/2017 4:14 pm Well Diamondzacx, Roman coins of that era are #1) Most likely out of round with splitting at times (just like your example. #2) The rim on original Roman(ancients) is a circle of dots, not a raised rim around the circumference. #3) the quality of the image copy is...very poor and laughable... Shall I continue with my untrained eye's observations? Report this Post to the Staff
