Roma2021 Pillar of the Community Italy 1130 Posts	Posted 10/01/2022 06:41 am Hello all, I have little reason to doubt the authenticity of this coin, but confirmation feels good. It is non magnetic, right diameter, and weighs 11.69/11.7 ... A little over, but pings right. The strike isn't great, but I haven't seen too many that are well struck... Thoughts?

Based on those obv and rev pictures, it would be a bit unfair to judge the condition of your coin from your on screen pictures. Not to worry, you may compare your coin with those pictures, to get a fair and accurate grading for yourself. Use 10x magnification under good lighting conditions, just as the Third Part slab Graders would do. Report this Post to the Staff
Roma2021 Pillar of the Community Italy 1130 Posts	Posted 10/01/2022 07:27 am @sel... I know. That's what I did... I just like showing finds to the community to confirm or contrast my conclusions. Is this a subtle way to say I shouldn't? The only people I interact with about coins is on this forum.... I don't think there's another example of this coin on the forum, so someone way find the discussion useful; I have found many previous threads useful. Sorry if I broke some convention or norm.

Roma2021 Pillar of the Community Italy 1130 Posts	Posted 10/01/2022 4:26 pm Thanks @oriole. I find, on average, about 10-12 coins a week... Nearly all I can verify, but this isn't one I've handled before. The more I investigate the more I think it's an authentic specimen. Report this Post to the Staff
