Guys, I just got a coin from Ebay which I was looking for a while Caligula was missing in my roman collection so eventually found one. I like to know if you guys think the coin is authentic or not? Is the patina look natural? The weight is 8,2 g - 25 mm I saw most items of this type being from 9-11 gram on acsearch this one looks a bit under weight is that ok?
Looks OK to me. The style is a bit odd, but I've seen other lefties with a similar "unofficial" look. E.g. (from CNG): They aren't ever listed as unofficial though. Here's my rightie for comparison (different issue):
Really a beauty you have right there! It looks fine to My very amateur eye. Beautiful patina! I have a green "leftie" that I bought listed as a possible barbarous (not that I'm saying I think yours is). Caligula Facing left/seated Vestav reverse. Possible barbarous.
@Severus Alexander and @Ryro Thanks Guys for comments. Yea I am not at all familiar with this coin it does have a nice patina and natural look and that was main reason I bought it plus the fact that caligula was a hole in my roman ceasar coins and getting a silver caligula was out of budget for me
