(I could be wrong about that, though...not my area, after all.) But the coin has *a lot* of corrosion/environmental damage. Might that account for the unexpected weight and dimensions? Could it be an As despite the size? If so, maybe Marcus Aurelius? https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=7085620 https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=5167339 Edited by Kamnaskires 08/12/2023 8:16 pm Report this Post to the Staff
micha Valued Member Cyprus 385 Posts	Posted 08/13/2023 07:30 am Thank you so much Bob for taking the challenge :) Yeah the weight is about half so I don't think the damage can reduce it so much. The size is about okay, my coin is loosing about 1mm which is okay for the damage it has. The S C letters are there as well. I will study the Marcus Aurelius head more. But as you mention the real challenge is the weight. Thank you once again!! Report this Post to the Staff
