Spectacular, Carthago
Looks authentic to me....from the photo. Well done!
As usual, SPECTACULAR, Ancient Joe. A pleasure to see them and marvel at the skills of those ancient die cutters. Thanks!
Sadly, it is not authentic.
To me, the "chunks of silver" are the only thing worthwhile on that coin. They tell a story about the coin.

Wow. That obverse with the legend below the wrestlers is new to me. Must be very rare!
A Greek silver with nice detail will be hard to find at $60. Good luck.
The portrait seems a bit odd....to me. Perhaps it is from an eastern mint. Maybe Hadrian experts can comment.
You should feel vindicated. A great coin!
I agree with Doug. Huge bust!
