    I don't trust it. Looks like a Toronto Group forgery.

    I’m just a relative newcomer to ancients, I’ve been collecting them for a couple years now but to me the surfaces seem off. From my limited experience I’m curious if there’s a seam on the edge. Feels kinda like it might be cast to me.

    Does not look good. Here's a real one. Look at the details, like the hair:

    I see what I think to be casting pits around the lettering and Aeneas's leg. I would not purchase this coin.
