Good question. Give us a hint.

 

A post without purpose (at least until there is a pic added).

 

It's it. (according to Faith No More's song Epic)

 

What do you want it to be?

 

Sorry I tried to post the pic a couple times I can't exactly figure it out I tried uploading it and it said it worked but it didn't...and it all off a celll

 

Any help would be much appreciated cause this coin is impossible to find online I'm pretty sure it's European silver

 

I didn't look at your profile but your tag says new member. If today new then check to see if you confirmed your email. Can't post pics til you do.

 

That's not a safe place to store your coins. I here it's really hot.

 

Lol I really am mind boggled by this if eel u can find anything online

 

You should post that on Ancients threads. I'm just learning Ancients myself. I have an idea but not confident enough to give an answer.
Has a Celt appeal to it, but not sure.

 

It's patterned after an ancient Greek coin from Olympia but it's fake.

Here it is on ForgeryNetwork.

An authentic example:

Another authentic example from CNG's archives:

 

Is there any different patterns cause I'm 99% it's silver

 

The fake versions not the same at all

 

Oh that's it

 

Yeah . It's unquestionably fake, regardless of the metal.

 

So sad well thanks a bunch been looking for answers for like two weeks soo happy to have closure

 

Is it worth anything

 

Only as a novelty or only to someone who acquires fakes for purposes of study. If it's made of silver it would be worth at least melt.
