Hi there, http://www3.picturepush.com/photo/a/1464796/img/1464796.jpg http://www4.picturepush.com/photo/a/1464797/img/1464797.jpg Please tell me what you think about the value of these Venetian gold ducats. Left: ducat of Pasquale Cicogna (end of 16th century), 99.99% gold Right: imitation from the 16th century. Poor silver, covered with gold. Thanks in advance. finewines
They would have little if any value as they are both fakes. And the gold content of Ventian ducats is 98.6%, not 99.99%.
Because it has the same mushy details as the other fake, it has a rough grainy texture common to cast fakes, and because you can see the darker underlying metal through the crack, just like you can on the other fake.
