Spence Moderator United States 34395 Posts	Posted 07/10/2022 8:18 pm @dog, first welcome to CCF. Second, since this purports to be an ancient coin (I'm thinking Judea), I'm going to move your thread over to that subforum. I will say that it seems likely to be a replica since coins that old don't have rims.

Dogdad26 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 07/10/2022 8:29 pm Thank you- I wouldn't be surprised if it was indeed a replica. From what I've gathered it looks most like an ancient quarter shekel but I know very little about this. The rim insight is great. I saw this which seems somewhat similar, has a rim but certainly different - https://www.numisbids.com/n.php?p=l...d=1268&lot=5 Report this Post to the Staff
