They both measure just under 24mm in diameter and 6.5 and 6.3 grams respecively. They have some matching features that don't appear to match a genuine coin. Images of the 2 on the left and a genuine example on the right. And then, the 2nd example has much of the obverse design bleeding through the reverse... Thoughts? I will take to my LCS for XRF next week. Best, Jack.
I don't think there's crispness of detail anywhere one either of those 2 examples . . . letters or otherwise.
Measure the thickness too if you can. It should be 1.75mm according to Numista (https://en.numista.com/6695). Counterfeiters make them thicker to get the weight close to a match (which you probably already know). They look like they might be silver plated - I don't know how that might affect the XRF results. Weird that one seems to be double struck, first with the obverse then with the reverse? They flipped it over and struck it again?
