Hi Graham, welcome to CoinTalk Ancients. I gather from your same post elsewhere on CoinTalk that you wish to know if your coin is authentic? It appears to be a cast of a cast of a cast of cast of a Paduan reproduction. So no... not authentic. Your coin (cropped, oriented, joined, and displayed in full for easier viewing): Here's and example of a cast of a Paduan reproduction from Forum Ancient Coin's gallery of fake ancient coins: Sorry . Here's an example of the real deal. This particular coin belongs to CoinTalk member @IdesOfMarch01: GAIUS (CALIGULA) 37 - 41 A.D. AE Sestertius (28.56 g.) Rome c. 37 - 38 A.D. RIC 33 C CAESAR AVG GERMANICVS PON M TR POT Laureate bust l. Rev. AGRIPPINA – DRVSILLA – IVLIA Sisters standing: Agrippina as Securitas holds cornucopiae; Drusilla as Concordia holds patera and cornucopiae; Julia as Fortuna, holds rudder and cornucopiae. In exergue, S·C. From the Gasvoda collection. ... Do you collect ancient coins?
Your fake coin has little value as a collectible. Perhaps someone would want it as an example of a bad fake but I doubt it would bring more than a few dollars. Some forgeries do acquire value as collectibles. Paduan reproductions of ancient coins, for instance, are collectible (but not ancient).
