Thanks Troodon, I guess you might be right about the dots on the surface, they can be misleading, but then the fact that this coin was submersed in water for 2000 years might be the reason as you said. Anyway, I am still looking for experts in the New York Metropolitan area to show them the coin, and I will take your advice and not show them the second one.
Thanks everybody

Also if it is a contemporary counterfeit rather than a modern one still might be worth something anyway, at least due to novelty value. |
