Spence Moderator United States 34418 Posts	Posted 06/18/2017 11:11 am Quote: what gives it away that it is fake? For me, the fact that some of the letters were only half created with an intact rim is a bad sign: "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff
antwerpen2306 Pillar of the Community Belgium 1194 Posts	Posted 06/18/2017 12:18 pm it is supposed to be a ducaton of Philippr IV : 1621-1665 , dated 1650 , mint in Brabant , Antwerp or Brussels . I agree with Spence for the letters and the rim : normally it is a dotted rim.albert Report this Post to the Staff

Look for this rim appearance on a 17th century Dutch coin "Two minutes ago I would have sold my chances for a tired dime." Fred Astaire Edited by thq 06/18/2017 4:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 06/18/2017 6:10 pm For a coin that is supposed to sbow a lot of wear, how come there are no significant nicks and scratches? Surface texture the same in the worn in the 'worn' high point areas as in the field between the lettering. Report this Post to the Staff
