We do see a whole of fakes being posted here.

Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 09/11/2020 9:37 pm BTW, the date, bottom reverse, is ΞP, which is year 160 in the Seleucid Era. (Ξ = 60; P = 100) This means the coin, if legit (I think it probably is), was struck between October 153 B.C. and September 152 B.C. Report this Post to the Staff
