It closely resembles the 4 ducat K2276, which was issued with dates 1872-1915. Missing from your example is the (4) beneath the eagle. Since it was never struck in 1495, it cannot be a restrike of that date. Has it been tested to see if it is gold? Report this Post to the Staff

oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 5246 Posts	Posted 10/05/2017 11:58 am I don't know how they could put a date of 1495 instead of 1915. Maybe it is one of those imitations made of gold that are made in the middle east. I have seen them for British Sovereigns. Correct gold and weight, but not made in the UK.
