Hello,

now in Corona times I have some time for beter exploring my coin collections so I have some suspicious about some coins:

Fourth and fifth one is 1 francescone 1803 & 1806 from Tuscany:

1803 - weight is 26,8g, diameter is 41 mm.

1806 - weight is 26,7g, diemeter is 41 mm.

Please tell me is this coins a fake or contemporary fake or real coins?

I see some issues with the 1806.

On the reverse, the M in DOMINE does not have the narrow vertical stroke on the left. The eagles in the upper right quadrant of the arms have wings separated from the body. The medal hanging from the arms at 6:00 is too far offcenter. There is no punctuation at the end of the legend or after the date.

Maybe there are things others will see.

Yes, that helps. You can remove my observation on the M, and if there is a dot after MEA, or both after MEA and the date, then you can also remove that one (the examples of the variety with CAROLUS obverse seem to have either punctuation according t examples I can find on CoinArchives).

I think the other two observations remain.

I hope you get other comments from members who know this coin.

Looks like fairly honest, circulated surfaces, no?
